Get the resistor at Radio Shack, this one.
Here

then wrap the wires around the holes in the light fixture then put the bulb in and you're done! if you don't understand i can take pictures later to show you.
thanks for sharing man

Just installed my license plate LEDs

the interior is so damn bright now! thanks brabusw209amg
I fitted mine last week, but it just doesn't seem to be as bright as yours, or was I expecting too much? Brought mine from trinityautosport.

If you angle them outwards a little then they will seem a lot brighter.

Am I missing something here. I rather not have my registration lit like a stadium. Why would it be better to have it so bright that the cops can benefit from it? ie easy for them to capture.

IMO, I would rather have dimmer red or blue lights thats just barely light-up the registration plate.

cheers

Either way cops are still going to write down your plate. The only reason not to have them that bright would be if you want to run from the law. In that case...just put your light switch to off and slam it
