Need a replacement. I called South Florida trailers, told them that my original lic plate and light holder, made of metal, had rusted out / away ( its a '98 aluminum trailer ) and Eric graciously sent me a black plastic one, free of charge, that they are now using. The problem is, it doesnt match up at all and will not work without it looking hokey...
What have you guys used on yours as a replacement ? I guess I can also go to PEP BOYS or something to see if there is anything that will look better...

I went with a plastic parts store special. Mine hung so low (used to this in many aspects
) that it would catch when backing up to curbs/parking blocks.
Its NOW mounted up underneath of the SB main bunk. Here is where it used to be:

On my particular South Florida trailer, the lic holder is screwed / bolted right to one of the the rear I-beams and is not tucked up underneath like on most Myco's and Eagle's I've seen...so on mine, the plate is fully visable..
