I'm guessing that since the logo on his license plate matches that on the package that he is the eBay seller of this product.
And like all of these LED plate upgrades, it seems way too bright to me. I don't want my plate lights creating pools of light on the ground like those in his picture are doing.

He was using heat-shrink tubing on the wiring connection. It's loose tubing that shrinks to fit tightly around the wiring when you heat it.

Perhaps it's just not possible to make a "dim" LED light. I'd love the look and color of LED lights if they weren't so darn bright. I'd want to have the bare-minimum light needed to illuminate my plate.

I don't understand why we can't find LEDs that aren't so bright. Many car manufacturers use LEDs for the license plate - BMW, for example - and those aren't too bright. What LEDs are they using? I can't imagine they're some proprietary bulb. Shouldn't this be easy to figure out?

Putting more light on my plate was never a concern, only the COLOR of the light.

Very funny. Thanks for pointing that out. Disappointing because the failure to disclose this adds a negative to what otherwise looks like a good product.
