I did just this to my 07 H2. Mine came with the external tire carrier but I wanted to swich back to the internal spare tire carrier like the earlier H2 models had. So I found the bracket and made the switch. (Best mod i've ever done). I then took my plate and centered it in that area just above the hatch release and it looks fine. I havent finished up this project yet with the light. I do have a small LED strip that takes 12 volts and I was going to mount the LED strip to the underside of the black plate. I will run the wires from the license plate light that inside the right rear corner bumper and fish them up and into the hatch cover. I could also just tap one of the clearance light wires as well. I have yet to be stopped for not having an illuminated license plate light in my town. The cops have other issues more important to worry about it seems.
