DIY LED License Plate Lights

[SexualChocolate]

Ok guys I am so sorry. I sold my FX some time ago and didn't know that people needed help with this.

i just got these tnx to your link on another thread, quick question: Is there any cutting or shaving involved? or just plug n play?

It's PnP (plug and play). I'm sure you already have them, but at least others will know.

I ordered the lights and installed them myself over the weekend. One of the adapters that was neccessary to plug it into the exisitng light socket was a bit finicky to install. The wire had the connects the adapter to the LED light was a little loose and so it had to be installed in a way where the wire made contact with the socket. The light itself is the perfect fit for the housing. It fits in there nice and snug.

The end result looks fantastic! It's really bright and the light itself is white with just a hint of blue. Thanks for the inspiration Sexual Chocolate!

You're very welcome. Best of all it matches the OEM tailights perfectly and updates the rear with such a simple cheap mod. Enjoy!

Getting them now. Was looking to get some V-LEDS but was hesitant cause i have had those flicker out on me in the past. BUT DANG DEM SOME BRIGHT BULBS MAN!
Looks Good. THANKS

You're welcome!

Is there any LEDs that you guys bought that didn't effect the backup cam? I use the cam ALOT so it'd probably bug me to have a half white screen! Maybe less bright ones that aren't the flickering eBay ones? Thanks guys!

The screen can be white closer to the bumper, so it might not be good for everyone. Mine wasn't too bad, plus I turned my head instead of using the cam.

would this work on 2nd gen?

I believe it should, pop it off and take some measurements and compare it to the lights available on the market. If this doesn't fit then another model should.

I just bought the exact lights from JDM. What else do I need for the install? I have never done a DIY like this.. What are the wires and what not in your pics? thanks !
Can you post the exact purchase for the DIY. I just got my order and it seems alls i order was the bulbs from the site for 10 bucks. Are the plastic cases part of another purchase or are they already a part of the vehicle? Thanks

I am sure you figured this out already, but the housing is the OEM housing on your FX. You only use 1 set of the wiring harnesses, they are the plug type adapters and not the bulb type. There is no cutting/modding involved; simply just plug in the adapter and fit the LED board into the housing taking your time to route the wires neatly, then just snap the housing together. Voila your done (well one side at least).

I PM'd you the reply to your other question already. I hope it helps, if not then LMK and I'll try to explain it further.
