Application
Mounted on the sides of the mudguards and at the rear of the body. Four pieces per vehicle (two on the sides, two at the rear).

Compatibility
This round model was used throughout WWII production. Ford switched to an oval housing around March-May 1943. Different lens manufacturers (Grotelite, Stimsonite, Guide) were used, all with the same Army stock number.
Historical context
Reflectors were a standard safety feature on WWII military vehicles and were produced by multiple suppliers such as Corcoran Brown, Guide and Arrow. All variants met the same military specification and received the same stock number.
