Default Soft brake license relocator

Just installed the Soft brake license relocator on my 08 Deluxe. I've attached a before and after.

That looks great...very clean! Where'd you get it? Is that a HD part and if so, what's the part #?

Does the tail light still light up the plate once you've moved it under it? Do you need to install anything to light up the plate? or just the $40 plate from softbrake?

Looks nice. Doing that soon myself, I hate the plate being up in the air.
There was a thread on this a couple weeks ago and someone used a lighted plate frame but I don't know it it was also softbrake or not.

Looks good. I've thought about doing this myself but think I will skip it for the time being.

Looks nice. Still not decided on whether to do the laydown plate or relocator on the wife's Deluxe. Seems if you run the bike solo w/o bags or luggage rack the relocator is an easy choice.

Wife runs bags and a luggage rack so a laydown plate may suffice. Lot less money too.

I picked mine up directly from Softbrake last week along with their LED plate frame. I'm not going to install it until my personalized plate comes in. Any notes on the installation especially, the wiring of the LED plate frame?

By the way, this mod was a no brainer after the wife caught the cheap plastic plate frame from the dealer dismounting and broke it. Plus, it really accentuates the curvature of the fender.

Looks great on the Deluxe. I modified mine to be a lay down plate.
