What are you going to do about lighting the License plate up at night?
I mounted 2 LED license plate bolt lights under the fender just above the plate , lights it up real good . Just fabbed up a couple brackets and bolted them on using existing bolts from tail light assembly mount . I turned flash off on second pic .

I did a similar job on mine. I agree that those LED bolts do a jam up job of lighting the plate if mounted higher up around the fender. I mounted mine just behind the turn signal

Default cool mount....Just lost mine yesterday

The area around the mount bolt and washer is the most important. Good job, plenty of meat there.

At Schmud I had the same plateholder as you in picture five but mine broke off one day and I lost my license plate, the holder and the inspection. The weak point is where the bolts go through and the thinnest part of the metal.

The idea was something minimal that no one else has done.
