Solution for Needing More Taillight Visibility Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack
Updated 08/07/2025 | Published 07/03/2025 >
Question:
Swagman referred me to you. I have an E-spec rack for my new bikes. The large Swagman cover blocks the tail/brake lights. Could you recommend a solution that doesnt require drilling the bike rack? Something that easily plugs in to the 4-way jack on the vehicle.

Hey Stephen, the best solution we have would be a magnetic light kit like the part # TL21RK which you could either attach to the bike rack if possible or to either your bumper or the roof of your vehicle to add additional visibility for the taillights.
