    Pick up a packet from super-cheap or Repco, only a few dollars.

    Yeah, seems like your numberplate is covered in some sticky black poos.
    Keep it rubber-side down...

    Little adhesive and srew attachable red reflectors that have the required safety numbers on them, does the 3m reflecy tape have any associated standards with it?

    Not really... but its so much better than any cheap reflectors... the black stuff is as good as the white background of the number plates...

    Photo1
    In the photo the white reflective stuff is normally black under normal light / daylight. But it is bright as the plate when under head lights or flash. And look at the red reflector on the far right.... its no where as reflective.

    Photo2
    reflective tape under normal light.

    eek Had concern with brake/tail light

    So I added 2 high level break lights on each side of the top box. My worry was that when you apply the brakes it only varied the tail light brilliance so during daylight hard to differentiate for the average cager.
