Hooke Road Wrangler Spare Tire Delete License Plate Relocation Kit w/Plate Illuminate Light & Third Brake Light for 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK & Unlimited

Installation took about an hour and a half the wire is a bit technical. Overall looks great love it. Great product for anyone considering removing the back tire/delete. Definitely good value for the price.

I have zero complaints about the items quality, people complain that the wires are both yellow, all I can say is pay attention. Do one at a time and you’ll be fine. I spliced mine into the rear wiring harness using t-splices. Took only a few min. The hardest part was trying to get the wires from the back of the item, through the gate and in a position where I could handle them. They gave you just enough wire to make the connection with no wiggle room for errors. My recommendation to the company would be for them to add two inches of wire coming from the back.I took my chrome bezel off and painted it black.

Came fairly well packaged. Pretty solid build. Cheap lights but they work. Tag light is bright. Brake light does not light up until brake is pressed. I did not like the chrome trim on brake light. Several reviews say it rusts quickly. Before install I took lights off and sprayed a few coats of black plastidip. I do this for most aftermarket parts even if they are powder coated. Seems to help. Once the lights were out, I covered the red lens of the brake light with painters tape and lightly cut around it to expose cheap chrome trim. I put a few coats of plastidip on it too. You will likely need to cut around the lens again after it dries. Whole thing is now black minus the red brake lens. You can’t see the tag light due to it being tucked under a metal frame. Install was very easy. Plate has to be mounted before install. Not a fan of that but not a deal breaker. I wired the brake light to existing wires for 3rd brake light. I wired the tag light to passenger side tail light. Black to a ground and positive to the white with purple stripe for JK. I’d advise you to tighten the hardware for lights even if you don’t remove them. They were very loose out the box. Would’ve likely fallen off over time if not tightened. Overall I am happy with it. Will suit my needs until I find a tire carrier I like. I will update as to the effects of the plastidip vs the rust issue and chrome trim.

Over all it’s a good product the only thing that’s bad is it’s already starting to rust I guess they didn’t use very good paint or whatever they used so my advice is if you buy it an before you install it sand it down primer it an paint it with good exterior metal paint

Have had on my jeep about 5-6 months and it’s already rusty and the brake light is dim. Would recommend painting it with better quality paint or bed liner before you install.

easy to install and it looks great!

This was a nice product when I received it. Heavy duty, easy to install with a YouTube video, looked Great but it's rusting pretty bad after less than 3 years. It's completely faded looks gray now instead of black and the Rust looks terrible.

Overall it's exactly what I was looking for. But time will tell how it does in a Vermont winter. The brine they dump on the roads is horrible on metal.

This bolted right onto my 2014 JK with no issues

Les lumières sont de mauvaise qualité elle prenne l’eau alors prévoir les changer moi j’ai choisi de petite lumière ronde !!!!

Very Nice product, but terrible instructions & slow delivery. License plate light is VERY bright (to bright if you ask me). You have to install the license plate to the bracket before attaching the bracket to the Jeep or you can’t get the nut on the back side, it should just have a spot to thread in a bolt instead of a nut & bolt. It looks great tho !!

Paint finish on all seams is poor quality. Weld seams are not preped for paint and finish is breaking down. Item started to rust after the first winter. Not worth the money. I do not recommend this item. I did not contact customer support for help but this item is junk.
