Question:
Im looking for a lamp that would mount below the plate that would shine upward, which is attached the back frame. Helping find specific product would be appreciated.

Expert Reply:
My best suggestion would be to use a bracket like the Steel Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, # LP20SB, with the Peterson Sealed Trailer License Plate Light, # M439K, and mount the bracket upside down. This would give you a lamp below the license plate that would shine upwards.
Before making a purchase, I do recommend contacting the Department of Transportation just to make sure that mounting a light that shines upward would not violate any of their regulations.
Please also keep in mind that mounting this bracket upside down could decrease your ground clearance approximately 3 inches.
