First Fix-It Ticket: Following in Tyler's footsteps...
Yep...got rolled tonight and got my first fix-it ticket. Guess what for??
Yep, you guessed it. No light on my rear lisence plate. The cop was actually cool about it. He could have rolled me for a million other things. (ie: No emissions equipment AT ALL!, and I didn't have my proof of insurance on me all I had was my policy #) So, I just gotta rig somethin up this weekend and go get it signed off.

Just get yourself a lighted billet license plate frame from Summit. Very nice......adds custom and makes you legal at the same time.

I think Tyler is on to something there!!!!
That is also why I went all LED on the truck. One problem I had with my license lights is the fact that they have no ground wire. They rely on the bumper to get the current back to the battery. This never works for long. I wrapped fine-mesh copper ground "cloth" around the sockets the last time I had them out to give them a better chance at grounding and it seems to work well. |

I had about nine fix-it tickets with my old Scottsdale down in So. Florida in the early nineties. The cops didn't like my old '78 in their neighborhoods.
