Part of the update is to move the number plate and reversing light off of the swing out carrier and put them elsewhere. This will enable me to put the maxxtrax onto the rear wheel carrier and save a bit of room inside the truck (and dirt too). I have re-sited the number plate to the rear bumper/bar. To do this I have used an ARB wheel carrier number plate bracket (in reverse) to mount up the number plate & light and provide some "step-on" protection to the plastic light cluster as it sticks up above the rear bar foot treads. The reversing light mounting will follow.....not sure where yet. To allow the number plate to mount up, and to re-use the original light assembly I had to make the mounting plate stand-off from the bumper. I also had to cut a section out of the bar centre plate (covering the latch /supporting pin) so it could be returned to its position.
