So I figured I would post this for people to see that you can accomplish having a side mount license plate without spending too much $$. I bought my bracket and Led bolt lights off ebay and got my mounting hardware from Shayne.
Roughly 55$ give or take. I am not sure if each state requires the plate to be lit but NC does so that was the reason for the bolt lights.
Hey gunners, looks awesome. I had vertical mount as well and then read the NC law stating that it is illegal to mount it vertically. Plus I was worried the base police would harrass me!;-)
