Default Cheap license plate relocation!!

Ok so you may have seen it but a few days ago I started a thread about my smittybilt xrc atlas bumper, and as you may know it does cover a bit of the license plate! Buying a relocation bracket and a plug for that hole in the quarter panel and then buying a light could be expensive. Just the offeroad light bracket is 30 bucks, the plug for he quarter panel is about 15, and the relocation bracket for the rear wheel is about 89 or something. So being an engineer in training I went ahead and designed a new relocation brake and its currently printing in pieces on my 3D printer Here is what I have so far and I will update as they print.



These are bolt lights from auto zone for about 12 bucks! Really bright and much better than the stock yellow light!
