Cateye rear light mount

Ridgebackrambler · 2015-02-07T16:22:24+00:00

I ride a Ridgeback World Tourer which came with a bike rack. As I'm on the small side, I can't put a rear light on my seat post as there isn't enough of it exposed. I have a very good Cateye rear light that I'd like to use but the fixing bracket on the bike rack only has one screw-hole position whereas I need two. I've tried using cable ties but these then block the slide to enable the lamp to be fitted. Anyone got any suggestions as to how I can fix this light on? Thanks.
