Lost / Replacing rear light reflector


CtrMint

Recommended Posts

Afternoon,

Just got back from another couple of hours blatting around, looked at the back of the car and had one of those moments where something isn't right.  Turns out the reflector in the middle of the rear near side light is missing.  I do have some spare lens, but they are coloured where as the one which is missing is from my clear/white lens.

Just wondering if anyone has successfully transplanted a reflector? Any tips.  Heat isn't softening the adhesive.

Thanks

Don't think he means the reflector is red - just he has some spare red lenses with reflectors he wants to use as a donor for the reflector.

I would think they are plastic welded on rather than glued - so removal might mean destroying the lens behind it.

Sorry, my explanation was a bit pants,  Yeah my reflector is red on a clear lens pack etc.  Looks like you are right, I can't get the reflector off without it starting to crack. Begs the question why the unit failed.

 Looks like I'll need to order a new lens.

We had a bulk buy a few years back of the rear lens with clear indicator lens and red lens and a reflector think this was made by BRITEX it came in three parts that you had to glue together. They may be able to supply just a red reflector to replace your missing one.
