Replacing the light over an RV license plate starts with the existing bracket, mounting-hole spacing and electrical connection. Some products are complete LED light-and-bracket kits; others are compact surface lamps, incandescent housings or a separate plate holder. On certain RV tail lights, license illumination is built into the driver-side assembly.

Three ways an RV license plate is illuminated

Dedicated mini license lamp Confirm screw centres, wires and the required number of lamps.
Bracket or complete kit A mounting bracket alone does not supply illumination.
Driver-side integrated tail lamp Only for the corresponding RV combination-light installation.

Use the part number alongside the mounting arrangement. The measurements and wiring in each row describe that specific item, not a universal bracket fit.

Part Brand Product type Mount Power / wiring
LPL12CKF2B Optronics LED light and bracket kit Vertical bracket with 3/4-inch grommet Black power, white ground; 0.180-in female barrels
LPL31CBP Optronics Mini chrome LED surface lamp Two-inch screw-hole centres Two black non-polarized leads; 12–24V DC
60011 Grote Industries Chrome-finish incandescent license lamp 1-3/4-inch screw-hole centres 12V incandescent; replaceable #67 bulb
LP15SBP Optronics License plate mounting bracket only Surface mounted; accepts compatible stud-mounted lamps None — separate lighting required
RVSTL61S Optronics Driver-side tail light with plate illuminator Surface-mounted RV tail-lamp body and license bracket Green stop/turn, black tail, white ground
Check lamp placement. Optronics marks LPL31CBP with a (2)L lighting classification and specifies a paired mounting arrangement for the listed configuration. Do not assume that a single mini light automatically provides the required license plate illumination. Follow the applicable vehicle lighting requirements.

Five checks before buying a replacement license light

  1. Identify whether the original is a standalone lamp, a bracket-mounted lamp or an integrated driver-side tail light.
  2. Measure the original screw centres and available depth, as well as the license plate's position relative to the light.
  3. Compare electrical connections: LPL12CKF2B uses female barrel terminals; LPL31CBP has two black non-polarized leads. Check the correct wiring for the exact model.
  4. Determine what is included. LP15SBP is bracket only; LPL12CKF2B has a lamp and mounting parts; RVSTL61S is a complete combination tail lamp.
  5. Confirm lighting placement, secure routing of wiring, sealing and applicable vehicle requirements before installation.

The LPL31CBP mini lamp is designed for 12–24V DC use. The LPL12CKF2B and Grote 60011 are different designs with their own connections. Do not assume their brackets or wiring are interchangeable.

License plate lights available in the catalog

These individual store listings include product photos, specifications and current online availability. The lamp-only, kit and bracket-only items are separated to avoid ordering the wrong components.

Compact license lights and LED kit

Bracket supplied without a light

LP15SBP is a zinc-plated steel plate holder for compatible stud-mounted license lights. It does not include an illuminated lamp.

Integrated RV tail-light illumination

RVSTL61S is only appropriate when replacing the matching low-profile driver-side RV tail-light family. Its three plate-light LEDs are included in the 12-LED assembly.
