Imagine my surprise when I'm in the middle of the same scenario with parts on backorder and I see this thread! Must be a PA thingie!

I've got a license plate lamp mounting bracket on order (along with new lamps & mounting bolts) from both my local dealer (now sells suzuki's but carries Isuzu parts) and St. Charles. Figured whoever got me the parts first, I would just keep the others for spares.

All I got so far was one lamp assemble from my local dealer and 5 mounting bolts from St. Charles....lol.

Was starting to think about going the "custom" route when low & behold you already did it! I was surprised @ how much was involved with removing the cladding & such...thought it was simpler than what you've show it to be.

Good to have someone else blaze the trails first! Thanx for the info.
