Default ORO LitePLATE fit JK?

i emailed a large 4x4 distributor who sells the LitePlate and they said it will not fit the JK. Northridge shows them on the website. I've seen pics on the forum of the LitePlate mounted on JKs. Is there different models? If so, which one fits the JK. All i know is member 4LO has one and he told me there is a hitch type mounting bar that allows easier access to the spare.
thanx 4 any help

Look here: Rock Hard License Plate Relocation Bracket & ORO PlateLITE
I have the ORO license plate light, but built my own bracket.

I bought mine from David @ Northridge. Fits no problem. Not the greatest pic but you get the idea.

I bought mine from Northridge (bracket/light combo deal thing)
here: Rock Hard License Plate Relocation Bracket & ORO PlateLITE Package

& it fits fine on mine.

i would just add some press on internal star retaining washers to the studs after mounting the bracket to keep it snug on the studs while your putting the spare on/off.

x2 on the hard wire. I also used the blue crimp things and would suggest a hard splice or solder.
