Lights for Child Carrier

Anyone have experience hanging lights on a CoPilot Limo child carrier?
I would post in mechanic subforum, but I thought some commuters might have a better handle on this.

Could try something with a "hose-clamp" type of mount, I think Blackburn Mars uses them. (at least the separate replacement mount you can buy is) Strap it around the "hand grab" on top.

A velcro strap should be able to secure a belt-clip type light on either side of the grab bar - run the strap between the hole under the grab and the hole at either "ear".

And don't forget the big ol' run of red DOT conspicuity tape on the back of the seat!

What's the back look like(pic?)?

If there's some flat surfaces,you could always get some heavy duty stick-on velcro.
