Question:
I have a 2020 Dodge Grand Caravan. Rather than using the OEM, smaller, spare tire mounted under the center console in a Rube Goldberg contraption, I got this carrier to carry a full-size tire. However, I need a license plate mounting solution to fit this spare tire carrier. I would also like it to have a little red brake light and a light to illuminate the plate when I turn on my lights for night driving. Does eTrailer have such a license plate mounting solution for this spare tire holder? If not, can you suggest some options? If I dont find a solution for this, I really cant use it as the spare tire blocks my license plate. Thanks!

Hey Stephen, so for an all in one solution we don't have that unfortunately. But what you could do is use the etrailer Spare Tire Mount for Hitch # e98ZR to hold your spare tire, and the LED Trailer License Plate Light with Mounting Bracket # 328-003-70BE to mount your and illuminate your license plate.
To add brake lights as well you'd need to also use the Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights # C53201.

Hey Stephen, how did the setup with the spare tire mount and the LED license plate light turn out on your Grand Caravan? Did the extra brake lights give you the visibility you were looking for? Your update could make it easier for others working on a similar setup.
