Default LED license plate lights

Im not sure why, but my cane doesn't have a license plate light. Which is a problem around here and a big ticket. So today I found some great little LED licence plate bolts.

Before I install them. I was wondering a few things. Can I just splice all 4 wires onto the old 2 wires? Or can I only use the one light?

Has any one elese installed these? Would 1 be bright enough?

Thx guys

Yes you can use 2, LED's draw like .03a of current, your old incadescant one drew close to 4amps.
I built my own board with 9 LEDS to light my plate up. 3 sets of 3 in a series/parallel schematic.

I'll take another pic, it kinda came out blurry. And I realised that most people seem to cover up the numbers of there plates on the net for some reason. So ill cover a few of the numbers with some carboard or something.
