Is there some sort of saddle bag rail extender device?

[Xiorell]

I own a saddle bag but it's rarely attached.
The problem is
1- I don't have loads of seatpost showing
2- The post I do have showing is filled with light/reflector
3- the saddle is rather far forward and doesn't have much of the rails protruding from the back

Is there something I can get to sort this? I'm sure I've seen on here somewhere, a device that attaches to extend the rails allowing you to loop the saddle bag over that rather than the original rails under the seat.
Can't seem to find such a thing on ebay or anything

How about moving the light to the seat stay, or using a bottle tool kit if you can fit an extra cage?

I bought one of these, either from Wiggle or CRC, I think, but not this website in Germany.

It sticks out a bit, but it takes a reasonably generous saddle bag. If you get one, make sure that you really tighten the elbow joint. Good luck.
