New rear light

Just finished putting together and fitting a home made rear light to the rear door. Height adjustable pole (from a garage tripod style work light), and a 12v work light from SuperCheap Autos.
Mounted the pole to the rear wheel bracket. Used some coiled wire for the supply, running up the inside of the pole, and plugs into the 12v socket in the cargo area when needed.

Initial idea was to have something that could also be used as a light in the cargo area if need be. Due to the height of the pole being adjustable by some 600-700mm, and the lamp being able to rotate a full 360 degrees, then this is now quite achievable. Very cheap, cost less than $60 for all the parts (new).
Lets just hope it works when I actually need it to...!!

Like your Work Light idea. How did you mount it to the Wheel mount?
