    My wife is Scottish and therefore it pains her to spend money on anything that she (well, me in reality) can figure out a way to do for nothing. :tongue:

    She decided she wanted to get rid of the donkey's tail on her Viffer, so I removed it, re-used the metal bracket underneath, re-attached the light to it, painted it black (the only cost was the small can of paint I guess) and re-bolted in place. I did ask if she wanted the plate angled out abit, to which she said "nah".

    Now, unfortunatly we have these stupid big license plates here in BC so there is nothing I can do to mount it up any higher. However, at the end of the day, the tail wags no more........and more importantly Mrs.Trikebubble is happy.

    Could be worse; could be one of those Euro plates that're about the size of a dinner table
