Looking for license plate relocation ideas

I just used a mallet to bend the rear plate to the curvature of the rear corner, mounted it directly to the corner, then used LED mounting bolts to light the plate up at night. https://www.denniskirk.com/k-and-s/led-license-plate-mounting-bolts-25-9160.p213803.prd/213803.sku
if i understand you correctly, i added this led light and its wires got jammed in between new tail lights and license plate frame, so it naturally sits there without any need to drill new holes.
... or do you need to know wiring for the new light?

I used an aftermarket spare tire mount and added to that. Third brake light, extra backup light, and led bolt lights for the license plate.

I'll be that guy that says you should check your states vehicle code. Don't want to be rolling around with a probable cause mod if you've got warrants. 
I bent the tag around the corner and used gorilla tape to mount it. I still have to mount the tag light. I will using this one. I will post pic when I get off work.

In my case I'm considering installing license plate over tailgate vent, eliminating the left side mount. Thanks.
I just realized you said it's a homemade setup. How did you attach it? Any more pics?
I would also suggest adding something more than just tape to hold your license plate on. Just sayin’.

Home built. SS housing, glass lens. Bottom is the tag light and the top is the 3rd brake that reads STOP.

I did have to bend the light mount flat with the rest of the bracket.
I riveted a piece of angle on the bak oe the bracket both top and bottom. I then riveted the oval light mounts to the angles. I drilled the third brake light mount to accept the led bolt lights for the license plate.
I used a flat 4pin trailer harness for electrical hookup.
Awesome! Thanks so much for the link and info. Looks great by the way.
The tape I used is 30lb Gorrilla Tape, i have had on there for 8 months so far with no issues.
