    I'm printing V2 now. It shouldn't rust now and it pops right into place with the plastic clips.

    Awesome work! You should be selling patents to Mitsubishi!

    Well, its all done. I'll take a look at it again when its dark, but it popped right in this time. One light is still backwards though. I mirrored the part incorrectly. Oh well. Unless it totally messes up the lighting on the plate it'll do just fine. I did fix the design for the future though.

    I also went ahead and replaced the bulbs with LEDs. I figured I might as well as I had them on hand.

    Looks pretty darn good even with the backwards light. Done!
