Availability Of LED License Plate Holder For RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack  

Updated 12/16/2025 | Published 11/17/2024

Question:

I’m looking for the Rocky Mounts LED License Plate Holder - RM030. Do you all sell it, or a suitable substitute? I have a RockyMounts backstage hitch mounted swing away bike rack on my Ford Transit van that covers the existing license plate. Thank you.

Hello Dave, thanks for getting in touch. We do offer a license plate holder that may work for your RockyMounts backstage bike rack, but I am sorry to say we do not offer the exact Rocky Mounts LED License Plate Holder - RM030 you are looking for.

What we have is the Yakima PlateMate License Plate Holder for Bike Racks # Y02713 which can be strapped on to your bike rack. This is designed to be universal so it can be mounted to virtually any bike rack in any orientation. For the BackStage # RKY10002 I would attach it to the wheel tray crossmember. The downside is no LED light for the plate, but if your only goal is to make the plate visible it will definitely work for that. We do not have anything with a built-in LED light that can be fitted to a bike rack without modification. For example, the LED Trailer License Plate Light w/ Bracket # LPL55CB which would require drilling into your bike rack and running a wire for power.

Hey Dave, how did the Yakima PlateMate work out on your BackStage bike rack? Your feedback could really help others trying to keep their plate visible on similar setups.

@JesseM That style of license plate holder does fit the bike rack and enables it to be clearly visible as required by law. Thank you for the recommendation. We ended up selecting the Thule brand with similar characteristics because at the time it was offered at a better price/value.
