Solution for Adding LED Light Kit to Platform Bike Rack
Question:
Hi, I would like your help selecting a single light I will be mounting directly onto my hitch mounted Yakima Hold up bicycle rack. Id like a submersible LED trailer tail stop, and turn light and extended cable about 36 for connection to an existing standard 4 pole flat trailer connector harness already mounted on my 2017 Subaru Forester. If there is a 3-function thin line product that can be flush mounted and easily connected to my existing harness, please let me know. Thanks!

I have a solution for adding turn signals to your Yakima Holdup part # Y02443 but it will require you to drill the cross tube of the rack which Yakima is not going to care for.
What you need is the light kit part # 98174LED which will plug into a 4-way and give you LED taillight signals.
To mount them to the rack you will need to attach the part # BK70BB to the bottom of the rack which will hold the light assemblies in place.
