Description
Overview
The Hollywood Racks Destination E LED Light Bar is a safety upgrade accessory that restores full rear visibility when your hitch bike rack and bikes obscure your vehicle’s tail lights. It provides integrated brake lights, turn signals, running lights, and hazard flashers — plus a mounting option for your license plate — making your bike transport safer and legally compliant for night or poor-visibility driving.
Lighting Functions & Electrical
- Brake lights (high-brightness red) activate when vehicle brakes are applied.
- Running lights (low-brightness red) provide visibility at night or during dusk/dawn.
- Left and right turn signals — deliver directional indication when turning or changing lanes.
- Emergency / hazard flashers — flashes both sides simultaneously for warning situations.
- 12 V DC input (standard vehicle tow wiring) — easy plug-in attachment via 4-pin flat, with included 4-flat to 7-pin round adapter and tester.
- Weatherproof & dustproof housing — rated IP67 for reliable performance under rain, road spray, or varying temperatures.
Compatibility & Installation
- Designed to mount to compatible hitch-bike racks (such as Destination series), using included hardware.
- Connects directly to vehicle’s tow/light wiring — simple plug-in setup, no complex wiring required.
- Includes license plate holder — ensures plate visibility even when bikes are loaded and might block factory plate location.
- Universal fit for many rack types — a versatile lighting solution for a range of hitch-mount racks and vehicles (provided wiring compatibility is checked).
Why It’s Useful
- Ensures brake, turn signal, and tail light visibility even with bikes mounted — essential for safety on roads, especially at night or in traffic.
- Makes your bike rack setup road-legal and safer, reducing risk of accidents caused by obscured lights.
- Easy to install and remove — adds significant safety benefit without bulky wiring or permanent modifications.
- Ideal for e-bike or heavy bike owners — especially if your rack tends to block factory lights or license plate during transport.
- Durable, weather-sealed construction — built for long-term use across seasons and conditions.
