License plate lights that are very close to stock are available from any parts house.  They pop into the stock holes in the bumper guards perfectly.

These the ones Dorman part 85808

That would be them.......

I made my own license plate bracket.  Took an old plate, flat stock and welded it up.  Took a bumper bolt cut off the head (most of it), drilled a 1/2" hole in the cross bar and welded it to the bolt.  Just need to keep in mind the plate should be close to centered to prevent hitting the gate when lowered.

THANKS for the info!!

eBay link to NOS wagon license plate lights...only the lens.  The price might be an indication how rare OEM lights.

FYI the Denman ones are 1.25" at the point they lock in, I was going to use one in a map light bracket and wanted to measure before I buy it.

 That one on e-pay is not for a wagon. Right diameter, Wrong markings.
