back lit number plate

[M44K TS]

I like the idea of a back lit numberplate, didn't TVR do one in one of their recent cars?

do it all.

whats with the big holes in the bootlid?

holes are air vents
rust holes (only bit on the boot)
will be cut out.


Thought about back lit plate , but i might recess the pressed area and fit some small LED's
in the top.

Hi everyone,
been out for a bit tonight, decided i,m going to have LED's for the number plate
lights, having three mounted in the recess above the number plate, I have folded
a return edge at work and welded this to the ledge above the number plate recess,
this will allow the LED's to be hidden



pic first stage fill with primer



pic showing full rear, more work done on boot lid clearance, now opens
freely



think i'll loose the boot lock, number plate holes will be cut out and patched.

Looking real nice. Its amazing how you can make sure alterations and still get it looking like it had always been like that!

[camp freddy]
