Reflector question
 
2 Attachment(s)
I'm putting my reflectors back on and I want to make sure they're on the right dirction. On one half, the reflector is smooth, the other half, there are ridges on it (my finger is pointing at it).
Can someone please tell me if the ridge side goes facing the front or the back?
Also, can someone tell me what size screw I need for the tail light lens and what length.
Thanks!
Joe

On my burb, I have the ridges on the reflectors pointed closest to the rear.
The screws are fine thread, and about an 1"1/2 long. I don't know the exact size, but the LMC catalog show's they sell them.

Thank you. I install mine the same way.

Does yours have a gasket around it? Mine didn't come with one but do you think one should be on it?

Your new ones should have come with a foam like gasket.
If there is no gasket, then water will get past them.

Thanks vectorit for the help. My old lens are still good so I'm going to use them. I just need to order new gaskets because when I bought the burb, it didn't have them.
