Curious about what is so attractive about a license plate that would be worth lighting?

I brought some off ebay and there bright. Kahuna it looks more up to date with the brighter lights or leds inside and out the car.

If you don't want to spend $45 on this setup, I sell standard super bright 5 SMD LED 168 wedge lights.

$4.99 shipped for the pair.

Really bright white lights on the back of a car doesn't sound like a very good idea to me. Are they legal?

Many Lexus models come with white LED plate lights from the factory. Some don't. They are standard on a lot of new cars across the brands.

I use the same one denIS200 uses...RDASH, perfect color & INSANELY bright.

Price isn't too bad either, considering that it replaces the factory unit completely. You'll have to remove your trunk liner & outer cover to install these bad boys.

I love my RDASH assemblies as well. I agree that they are worth the money. Here's a pic of mine:

What's the purpose in extreme lighting in the license plate area? Can't imagine why you would do that.
