Picked up one of these from work today 32 x 1W LEDs. Hooking it up proved harder than expected due to my big fat hands. Running the wire from the light source was a pain due to the fact that it is on the tailgate when you lift it up. So I had to run wire all the way from the bulb in the tail gate to the light. I managed to hide all the wiring though so none is visible (except for the little bit at the actual light). With the extra light I can actually see where I am reversing now, very happy with the result.

Well done, Wayne. Looks very effective.  :goodjob2:

We'll have to hold or next SE Qld member get together at night ago we can see how good it looks.

Those Queensland Reggio plates look very retro! So does the light but it sure looks bright & well fitted  :goodjob2:

Keith it is actually a personalised number plate so you can choose whatever colours you want. I like the simple white on black but there are many different colour combinations. Check them out on www.ppq.com.au and have a play. They are not cheap at $445 (for the ones I got) but you only have to pay for them once, there is no yearly fee to keep them.

I like to visit the site every now and then to have a play to see what combinations I can come up with.

Aah I see thanks Wayne, stuffy UK has strict and boring "no choice" number plates surrounded by legislation! All look the same even font size... but obviously have different number & letter combo's lol!
