Is There an Easy Way to Add Tail Lights to a Bike Rack

Published 01/05/2023

Question:

I have a Hollywood HR4500 Destination erack for 2 bikes. Bikes obscure 2020 Toyota Highlander taillights. I want to install extra lights on the rack and plug into my trailer outlet. In looking at your site I think your H01540 kit would work. I can send a picture of the rack but cant attach it to this. Would it be the best for what I am doing.

We do offer light kits for cargo baskets but the issue you'll run into is that there are really none for bike racks and you'll have to find a way to retrofit the cargo basket lights to a bike rack. The Lets Go Aero LED Light Kit part # H01540 is likely your best option for retrofitting as it has a built-in bracket which can either be zip tied onto or drilled and bolted through a surface. It's a complete kit as well so it comes with the lights, mounting brackets, and wiring harness. The wiring harness just plugs into a standard four way connector so that ought to be the easiest part.
