Features to know about

Brighter, Low-Power License Plate Illumination: Efficient LED Output

This light uses a single white LED that puts out a bright, clear beam to keep your license plate visible at night. It draws only 0.054 amps at 12.8V, so it’s easy on your electrical system while still meeting DOT requirements. The LED lasts up to 50 times longer than standard bulbs, giving you crisp lighting without ever having to replace a filament or worry about dimming over time.

Built to Handle Vibration: Durable SMT Construction

Rough roads and constant movement can shake traditional bulbs loose, but this one uses surface-mount technology (SMT) for the LED circuit board. That design helps it better handle shock and vibration while also improving heat distribution. The result is steady output and long-lasting reliability, even after miles of use.

No Corrosion or Cracks: One-Piece ABS Housing with Clear Polycarbonate Lens

The one-piece ABS plastic housing resists corrosion, and the clear polycarbonate lens keeps the light protected from dirt and debris. It’s tough enough for the long haul without yellowing or cracking. You get lasting clarity and durability in a simple, compact setup that stays looking clean.

Simple Power Hookup: 2-Wire Pigtail Connection

Wiring doesn’t get much easier than this. The light uses a basic 2-wire pigtail—one power lead and one ground wire—so connecting it to a 12V DC system is straightforward. No special connectors or adapters required, just a clean install that works every time you turn on your running lights.

Straightforward Mounting: Bracket Included for Surface Installation

This light is made to mount directly onto the surface of your trailer using the included bracket. The overall size is 8-5/8" long x 2-5/8" tall x 2-1/2" deep with mounting holes spaced 3-1/4" apart center to center. Once it’s in place, the angled design aims light down perfectly across your plate so it’s always clearly visible after dark.

This is a perfect match to what came with my Montana. I like to keep things looking nice, I used it on my bike rack because it blocked the license plate. Looks great, only takes a few minutes to take off the trailer and put on the bike rack.



by:

I’ll have to install when I’m back at my camper. It appears to be a good match.

by:

I purchased this license plate bracket to replace the one originally on my trailer because it had been damaged. The new one from etrailers works great and I was able to reuse the existing hardware



by:

Its exactly what was on my trailer so I'm pleased with my purchase and I'm sure I will be making more purchases from etrailer. As my trailer ages and it starts to fall apart more

  • Looking For License Plate Light For Trailer With LED Light And At Least 22 Gauge Wire
    Hello Michael, thanks for reaching out. We do offer license plate brackets with built in lights. What I recommend is the Trailer License Plate Holder with LED Light # 328-003-71BE. I went out to our warehouse to check and I can verify it uses 18 gauge wire.

  • Light And Plate Kit For A Thule T2 Pro XTR
    Hi David! I have a couple options for you, but Thule does not make a light kit specifically for the T2 Pro XTR, unfortunately. If you are ok with not moving the license plate, the Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights # C53201 is an easy an inexpensive way to add lights to a bike rack. If you will be leaving your bike rack on full time though, I would recommend going with the next option. This will be more expensive and you will need to either drill into the rack or come up with a way...

    To use the Thule License Plate Holder # TH35JV with the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 you will need to attach it to one of your bikes as the holder is designed to attach to either a vertical or horizontal bar. Since the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 already has holes for attaching a license plate you can simply attach your plate to the rear of the bike rack with the 2 screws provided.

  • Replacement LED Tail Light Options For Bargman 30-92 With Incandescent Tail Lights
    The LED Trailer Tail Light Driver # 328-003-81LBM1 and Passenger # 328-003-81BM1 are going to be the closest to the Bargman # 30-92-004 you currently have. These lights are all red and do not have provisions for the reverse light. Another option you might consider is installing LED Bulbs # ARC93FR and # DI52VR in your current tail lights so you will not loose the reverse light feature. Otherwise the Dual LED Trailer Tail Light # CE86FR is surface mountable and will allow you to keep your...

  • How to Power Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light on Cargo Carrier
    The Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light with Bracket # OPT97FR would normally be mounted to the surface of a trailer. The the only way to power this light using the Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights # C53201 would be to splice into the running light wire which I would not recommend doing. Your other option would be to run a separate power line to the license plate light. There is no kit available that has a license plate light and indicator lights together for a cargo carrier.

  • Parts Needed to Add Separate License Plate Bracket and Light With Peterson Light Kit M540
    You can tap into the running lights(brown wire) on the Peterson Light Kit # M540 with a Tap # SWC502905-1. That will allow you to run 16 Gauge Wire # 16-1-1 to a Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light # OPT97FR. You will be able to ground the negative wire to the steel frame, as your light kit uses the frame for the ground circuits.
