Your making quick progress and it looks great. A real credit to you.
Did you see the off road trailer on the gadget show this week? They had put a howling moon tent on the top of it. I have a recording of it if you like, as it may give you some ideas.
cheers Mike

Istr it should be in the centre, illuminated, but no set height.
Having said that, mine is way off to the left side As I had a hole for the wire already there, so used that. I use a squarer motorbike plate rather than the long rectangular plate.Bodsys Brake Bible

Above the jerry cans will be fine and I think look good. Bodsys Brake Bible
One of the secondhand LR dealers that used to go around buying at auction had a big trailer that was towed by three different vehicles. They had all three numberplates on the back, all illuminated, one top centre, one lower left, other lower right.
