Fold down license plate bracket

[Ron Shaw]

I goofed up by placing my tail lights a little close to the trailer. I left enough room for a small tag, and in KY a camper's tag is as big as an automotive plate. So I decided to make one that would fold down while not on the road. Plus it needed to be lighted. So here is what I came up with. Here it is in the up position for travel.mg]And here it is in the down position.Here are two close up's, so if anyone out there may need a foldable plate bracket here is a possible solution.This one is from the bottom, looking up. Sorry but I guess one cannot glean much from this last photo. But then again who knows. I know, I know, I need a little practice with this tex and photo's thing.

That's a cool idea. Most folks would have just found a way to attach it to the hatch, and jury rigged the wiring. You did a nice job!

Great idea! For the photo's and text thing, just push "end" and then return and it will take you to the next line without messing up the Img. I skip a line so it is easier to read.

Ron... You sure did a fine job on that folding tag bracket. That thing is beefy enough you could attach a folding down table to it!

Hey thanks folks. I just made is from some 1" scrap sq. tubing I found laying around. So it is pretty stout. Thanks again
