Plate relocation question
I ordered the soft brake tombstone tail light cover and plate bracket and it is supposed to be at my door step today so I plan to install it tonight. I'm wondering if it will be easier to just take the fender off or pull the wheel to do the swap. What's everyone's thoughts?
Seems as if fender would be easiest option since its just a few bolts but I dont know, I do have a lift I can use.

also if you dont have a radiantz license plate frame then make sure you pull the wire with the bulb so that it clears your license plate frame so that you can splice it later when you do get a lighted plate frame.

Well, I couldn't get my hands in there to get to the top 2 bolts that held the old plate mount on and I couldn't get to the top 2 nuts to get the light part out so I just unbolted the fender and took it off. Really not that big of a deal, 6 bolts and less than a minute.
However, I need help now.
Can't seem to get the bottom screw to thread in. Keeps wanting to cross thread cause it's at the wrong angle.
Any thoughts?

Light wiring has been planned, yes I am the mechanic type which is one of the best things my dad taught me before he passed.
I think I may have gotten the wrong housing, called softbrake and waiting on a call to come back. I'm not happy at the moment that the bottom screw wont go in at all.
Motown your bike is sick by the way, big fan. Nice to see the socal look in the D
