[Roadsters] rear reflector

[Gordon Glasgow]

There are a few halogen backup lights available from companies like KC
HiLiters that can be found out on the Web. Hella used to make one but it
looks like they don't any more. These backup lights usually run about 35W
instead of 55W like the driving lights and are a bit smaller, so more in
scale with the originals.

Just as a tiny nag, the reflectors are a safety feature. I can think of
worst-case scenarios where removing mandated safety equipment
may get the attention of the authorities and/or your insurance
agent. Didn't someone (in Ohio?) have problems passing
inspection because of malfunctioning windscreen squirters?

For a potent backup light, use a square driving light mounted in
the stock location :-)
