Title: Reflector Mod (696) Post by: Holden on February 15, 2009, 04:01:46 PM Heard about some people getting hassled for not having reflectors after their tail chop, so I did this using an old bicycle reflector and a cable tie:
Location: (http://i44.tinypic.com/24q8y9x.jpg) I stuck it up through the gap sideways and rotated it back 90° to snap it in place, then secured it with a zip tie around the nub where the tool kit is normally strapped in. From the inside: (http://i40.tinypic.com/b87k42.jpg) LEO POV: (http://i42.tinypic.com/fwhs07.jpg) Your local bicycle shop should have some of these handy (simply unbolt it from the clamp): (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_M3UdR8l9nKg/R8SaZk76AQI/AAAAAAAAACI/QEa-5apCmqw/s320/100_0294.jpg) Title: Re: Reflector Mod (696) Post by: zLoki on February 15, 2009, 04:41:51 PM Nice easy mod!

I found some at cyclegear with bolts on the back that went through the holes in my plate. they were like $1.50 each or something. We had a rash of guys around here getting tickets for not having the reflector. easy fix. andy Title: Re: Reflector Mod (696) Post by: Holden on February 15, 2009, 05:44:49 PM I wouldn't leave your tool kit back there, it could come off. Great Mod! Darn, I needed a good place to keep it now that it won't strap in the normal place anymore.
