    License Plate Light for my roadster

     



    What are you guys doing for a rear plate light on your fenderless cars? I bought a very cool looking stainless lamp made by Bob Drake and decided i don't like it because there is not enough room under it for the plate to mount without overhanging the lower body line, extending the plate beyond the panel just below the decklid (the part with the flying eyeball painted on it). Just doesn't look right to me and makes the plate look like it is too low. The plate fits nicely in that panel under the decklid WITHOUT the light, so I'm thinking of getting a pair of those "Bolt 'N Lites" that are just a tiny bulb within the head of a license plate bolt... I realize it aint gonna shine much light on my plate, but i don't care about that, i just need to have a light on the plate to be legal, and am more concerned with keeping the "look" clean... wondering if anyone else has any other ideas? Do they make a lighted frame that doesn't look all billet and modern? I want a classic look, and aside from the light i already bought and don't like, i can't find anything else that would look good.
