Will absolutely post pics when it arrives. Here’s the link to the cover so you can check out the product pics: https://www.vleds.com/shop-products/lpr/lpr-lpb-full-frame.html.

Still looking for confirmation that I bought the right trailer connector 5-pin setup to build the connector for the Curt T-connector. This one was a good price and in stock on Amazon, so I went with it. Thanks in advance!

What you bought will work.

I Bought these two...installed with no issue (soldered the connections).

Thanks. Just bought the LED, and now the stuff on your list is next.

VLEDs is still offering the 15% discount code BTW.

Cheers,

Light and plate ordered, discount applied, wait for in stock status. Can't wait to see where I'm backing into.

It’s truly an incredible part. Makes a world of difference, even in the day time in parking garages and such. I love it.

Harnesses came in today and will prep truck tomorrow for arrival of LED. Now that my truck is quiet again after today, I'm looking forward to seeing where I'm going in reverse.

Prepped and ready (5 minutes) for the lights to come in!

This is what I meant; had fun making it.

This way the VLEDs aren't modified, with the KURT 5-way T my truck's wiring is not modified, and the KURT harness itself is not modified.

Edit: to know which wire was positive and which was negative, I connected the extension to the VLEDs and used a 9v battery as a tester. Enough voltage to light up the LEDs so you know the polarity if the circuit is established, not enough amps to burn anything if the circuit is in reverse.

Great tip. My LPR is arriving tonight, and I will do the exact same you did. Thanks for providing these pics.

Installed mine yesterday. Took 15 min. Very easy. Thanks @dad2steph you made my life much easier. I am still waiting for the license plate. Just did the light so far and works great. Will post pix after I get the license plate also. Thx guys.

I know... Right? I did get the 15% discount back in May when I purchased mine though.

Thanks for the heads up and 25 $s savings.

Sunk in a ditch. You would think they would give the extra discount to those that ordered knowing it would be a month before in stock.

Is this needed? Can we not just swap bulbs out with LED? Sorry just got my ram so catching up on all things.

Those of us with led tails can’t make them any brighter

So is this for the reverse bulb in tail light not the license plate lights on the left and right?

Done with the install. Quick and easy.

Would have taken 15 min, but I wanted everything nice and tidy, so it took about 45 min from start to finish.
Blue cable goes with the LPRs dashed cable (positive).

Install Detail:

Trailer connector is not hard at all to remove. Just grab it and pull back towards spare tire.
Once everything's connected, I wrapped all connections with electrical tape to seal against moisture.

Before & After.

My driveway was not pitch black as it was still dusk. You will really appreciate the added lumens in very dark situations, and even then, you can see that the added light greatly minimizes the the camera noise present with the stock set up.

The LED strip is real tiny and not noticeable unless you know what you're looking for. Very happy with the end result.

No. It mounts to the license plate. There are pictures in the first post.

Oh ha I thought I had seen that but now that I'm actually paying attention to it i3 what your are taking about ha.

Is it a big night and day difference then just doing LED bulbs in the stock license plate area
