Default Deluxe tail light

My wife has a 2007 Deluxe she likes the stock tombstone tail light but she wants her lic. plate on the bottom under the tail light instead of on top. I don't see away of changing that because the way the Lic. bracket is moulded into the tail light . Has any anyone been able to relocate the lic. on the stock tail light ?
Is there a after market tail light that is a tombstone light with the Lic on the bottom ?

+1 on the softbrake kit, make sure you get the new tombstone light and plate bracket.

I dont know how big your plates are but my plate is a bit smalled then the plate bracket, you may want to get the frame too, or get another frame to put around the plate so the plate bracket doesnt stick out from around the plate.

You will need a lighted license plate frame to replace the light you are removing when you replaced the tail light cover.
I bought everything from Softbrake and it turned out great.

Softbrake really cleans up the rear, especially if you're running solo.
