Anyone recommend any rear bike racks that don't obscure the rear lights etc?
Ive got an Accord saloon and the missus a Vitara with the spare mounted at the rear.
Not sure whether to simply fit a spare wheel rack and nick her car or get one for mine.
I have an old Halfrauds low mount but for some reason (either crap or straps missing) I cant seem to get it to sit nicely, as it keeps trying to jump over the lip of the bumper.

You'd be much better off putting it on the roof of the Accord out of harms way.

I'm having similar issue trying to find something for my Civic (new shape 3 door).

Ideally i'm looking for one of the boot mounted ones (roof racks and tow hitch too pricey!) but there doesn't seem to be one that fits the new civic with its funny shaped arse. Was also told that its a no-go because of the all glass rear?
