A new and improved apparatus for illuminating the rear portion of a vehicle and particularly the license plate of such a vehicle with a bright glowing light. The apparatus includes a transparent channel member for receiving a high voltage high frequency transformer and a single annularly shaped neon bulb therewithin for illumination purposes. The neon bulb is energized by the high voltage, high frequency transformer that is coupled to the vehicle electrical system by a low voltage high frequency power supply. The channel member is adapted to mounted adjacent to the license plate of a vehicle and scaled with a protective cover to help prevent accidental shock and to protect the bulb from exposure. The preferred method of using the apparatus is to connect the apparatus to the lighting system of the vehicle so that when the brake pedal of a vehicle is depressed, the low voltage power supply generates a source of low voltage high frequency electrical energy to power the high voltage transformer and in turn the associated neon bulb to augment the vehicle brake lighting system.
