Just got my LED replacement bulbs for the license plate light. Wondering if anyone's done this yet and has any "how to" on changing the bulb?

Yes, easy as hell. Just pull the housings out and then the bulbs, then just pop them back in. Seriously takes 5 min at most. Use trim tools if you have them.

Thank you. And when I get home and actually do it I will post some pics up

Agreed. Very easy. I changed out the trunk lights and the footwell lights too. Now I am LED all around.

I replaced trunk and license plate lights. Plate lights didn't last three weeks, one went completely out and other was intermittent. Pulled and replaced with OEM no problems since. Seems odd both were outside lamps.

6 months with good Samsung LEDS- no problems at all

The procedure to replace the license plate lights are actually in the owners manual.


I've had no issues with my Plate lights. I replaced them 6-7 months ago with ones off ebay. Zero issues and still look good!

Just one of these is needed for the license plate Glen?

Glen e

Yup, One per reflector....get em for the in-hatch lights too.....

DocHolliday

Sweet, thanks Glen. Ordered 2 sets to do license plate and hatch area.

Thanks for the help guys. It was incredibly easy to do and took only a few minutes. Why this wasn't OEM in the first place is beyond me.

When I first saw this thread, thought you were putting in a dimmer light. I usually dim my license plate light, just this side of inspection requirements. When in College we put red lights in the license light. Looked good, local law looked the other way.

Nice pics Scotty. Thanks for posting!

Much better!

We have directions on our website for anyone else looking to do this:

Just installed mine a bit ago, very easy for both the license plate and the rear cargo area. Big difference for a little cost.

these are great and not too bright. gives you enough to do all the t10 bulbs in the car. no sense getting ripped off 2 bulbs for $10-20

I replaced the license plate lights as well as trunk lights with LED's in my 2016 Stingray. Much brighter and cleaner look. Very easy plug and play installation.
