1:24 Fomoco plate lights from Decalcas are miniatures of rear license plate lighting in the Fomoco version, that is from Ford's production, for 1:24 scale.
Responsibility details are not available.
The abbreviation Fomoco appears on parts that come from Ford's production, and in the name of this set it specifies the version of the lamp above the rear license plate. The set brings separate parts with a housing shape of their own, which replace the simplified solution on a plastic body. It is not a kit of a car but an accessory for finishing a model.
Ford cars appeared in rallies and on circuits throughout the second half of the twentieth century, and a lit plate belongs to their rear as naturally as a rear fender or a trunk lid. Anyone building a model from period photographs usually finds that it is exactly this small lighting equipment that tells one series from another, because it changed over the years. Which cars carried this particular housing, however, is something to check against photographs of the machine you are building.
A part of this kind looks best when it is not new: a slight darkening of the lower edge and a faint touch of dust suggest the car has covered some distance. Keep the frame in a dark tone and save the light color for the face the light would actually leave. If the model stands in a display case with its rear toward the viewer, check the shape of the reflection from the side, because it is at an angle that you see whether the part sits parallel to the edge of the body. Apply glue with the tip of a wire so it does not reach the surrounding paint.
