Craptastic Rust

The license plate light holder. Rusted crust. Had to get a soap holder and use some quick ties to hold up the lights. Craptastic. You would of thought they would of used aluminum instead.

Its a common problem. Whenever people have blown bulbs back there, its always a crapshoot as to whether its going to fall apart in your hands or not... I think a replacement is > $100. Nissan us on this bigtime!

I had a bulb go out and had to cut through the plastic to replace it because it's impossible to separate.

Just had this wonderful little problem! Purchased the light harness from Pinnacle for about $23 plus two weeks for shipping and about $21 too. Then found out that it didn't come with the bracket, YAY. So had to go to the local stealership who got that for me at $39 or so shipped to them. And three days... When you take the old one out, don't lose the plastic little square to round things that the screws mount the lights too, cause you're gonna need 'em! Gotta thank Nissan for that little kick in the *****.
