I recommend the 24x60 Folding Cargo Carrier, part number # e98874. The large size and folding ability make this carrier a great option. Where are your reverse lights located? If they are on the the corner of the vehicle, they most likely will not be obscured by the carrier. If they are on the liftgate, they probably will be. You would experience this issue with any cargo carrier, especially once it is loaded. We offer a Cargo Carrier Light Kit, part number # e98943-44LED that you might be interested in. This kit would provide brake lights, turn signals, and running lights for the carrier. If the license plate is hidden by the cargo carrier, you might want to consider relocating it to the carrier with a product like the Yakima PlateMate License Plate Holder #Y02713.
