Re: Tail light fuel filler

Where did the backin plate for the lights come from(the one that hinges down)? Is that part of the LED kit? That came out great, and looks smooth.

Just out of curiosity, where does the spring connect to the light fixture at?

I cut the bulb bucket out of my original backing plate, welded in some sheetmetal, and smoothed it with bondo. Here's a pic that I edited to show the spring location.
EDIT- Well, you can hardly see it, but I circled it with red just under my finger on the left side.

Very nice installation. No need to apologize. Your craftsmanship and your photos are excellent.
