Application and vehicle function

The presented license plate light is a component mounted within the tailgate, responsible for evenly illuminating the license plate area during night driving and in conditions of limited visibility. Properly functioning lighting:

• ensures the readability of the registration number for other road users,
• meets the requirements of vehicle lighting regulations,
• contributes to the overall visibility of the rear part of the body.

Thanks to its factory design, the lamp works with the Ford Transit Custom electrical system, enabling stable operation under typical operating conditions for a commercial vehicle.

Magnetic Metallic – 7J color and visual fitment

The finish in Magnetic Metallic – 7J allows for color consistency with the bodywork if the vehicle has the same paint code. This is particularly important when replacing components in the rear area of the car, where differences in shade are easily noticeable. Using the original color:

• reduces the need for additional painting,
• facilitates quick installation without finishing work,
• helps maintain a uniform appearance of the tailgate and the license plate area.

Installation and operational characteristics

• maintaining the serial look of the rear of the vehicle.

This solution is aimed at users who want to restore proper license plate lighting after mechanical damage or wear of the previous component, without interfering with the body structure.
