    Cheap/easy fix for the license plate light glare.

    Links to purchase:

    Etsy-->
    https://pdgllc.etsy.com
    ​










    Below you can see the glare from the lights without the cover and with. The covers completely block the light from the view of the camera without blocking the light from illuminating the plate.


    No cover




    Driver side only



    Both covers, no glare!

    Thanks everyone for the orders, I just woke up (I work night shift) and holy crap I didn't expect this many orders! I already ordered a LOT more supplies to help keep up (it'll be here Thursday). I will use the materials I have on hand to start on the orders in the order they were received and let each of you know when yours is sent out.

    Thanks! I was trying to think of an alternative to buying the wiring harness (I'm too cheap) then one night at work someone shined a flashlight towards me, naturally I put my hand up to block the light so I could see and had the epiphany. After that it took all of 30 minutes to design, cut, test fit, tweak, cut, install. I'm still surprised by the amount of interest in these things!
