Rear light reflector fitment

Post by adam maclean »

I cracked the corner or mine changing a bulb.

Are they rev specific? Or are they universal? i.e. will a rev2 fit a 3?

im pretty sure they will but want to make certain.

Thanks any way. It's annoying as they do look identical in pictures.

they also both have a different black lip running around the outer edges of the triangles, which pick up with the black trim around the rear lights.
