Default Help, need an export part number

I'm trying to find the part number for the export licence plate panel. This is the rectangular inset piece. The domestic one has the backup lites as part of it. What I'm looking for is the one without the lites.Might give my coupe a different look. I don't backup much in the dark anyway. Any help would be greatly appreciated. S.R.

426 Hemi,

Are you sure you really want to do that. I believe that there is a Federal regulation requiring backup lights on all vehicles.

On the euro spec cars it comes in black, no matter what colour the car has. Looks like a piece of poopie. Painted mine in silver, since then I liked it a little bit more. Anyway it is a simple piece of plastic that doesn´t fit without big gaps. If I was you I would not change.

PS: got the number
Frame rear licence plate, 05978054, only with option code VE1, not with option code VD1
Glad to help you
