Application

Mounted on front mudguards (left and right) and rear body panels according to SNL G-503 figures A through D. Amber version was primarily used on later production and postwar applications — original WW2 specification for jeeps required standard red reflectors.

Installation notes

Mounting with two screws on 101.6 mm (4 inch) centres. Reflector is secured with mounting bracket (retainer) supplied with mounting kit. No electrical connection required — operates through passive reflection.

Compatibility

Note: amber (yellow) reflectors were not standard on WW2 jeeps — red reflectors were the original military specification for rear and side marking. Amber was more commonly applied on postwar civilian vehicles, lorries and export versions. For correct WW2 restoration: use red reflectors.

Historical context

Reflectors according to Government Group 2203A were mounted at multiple positions for passive visibility without lighting. Various manufacturers supplied reflectors during WW2, including Corcoran Brown (round version), Guide (oval version for later GPW), Stimsonite and Grotelite.
