Rear plate relocation (add Euro style)

I recently relocated my rear license plate to be connected via the tow hook mount, (I also wired lighting) so that I could have a EURO style plate where my "Stock" U.S. plate would normally go. It's completely legal in my state and I haven't had any issues. The only technical part (after figuring out wiring) was removing the rear bumper to pass through the wires, which I connected to the rear Passenger tail light using an extension which I pinned into, which also should allow it to come on automatically with the normal lights. (I haven't figured out this part yet). I'm not totally sure If I'll keep this setup, but it was definitely a fun project to see if it was possible!
