softbrake lic plate light idea...
i was thinking about this earlier and how it may or may not work, figured id get our gears turning. ill use a Deluxe as an example. Softbrake mounts the lic plate below the turn signal bar, right? how bout changing the turn signal bar to the one of a road/street glide? it shines from the bottom, maybe a little work and it should fit fine.... at least in my mind, what say you fellow Softy riders?

Feel free to PM me later if you have questions on the wiring. ejvette also put together a smokin' post on how to install it.
Good luck.

My suggestion to them would be to make the plate bracket a U shape at the top and bolt on to the same three holes the tombstone does. That way you don't go through the hassle under the fender
I used two bolts with LED lights ($12). I know nothing about running the electric and I did it pretty easily.

Yup, it gets rid of the old mount lump and clear window on the top, well worth it to me.
