Hi Lancer owners, this is my first post and the 09 mitsubishi lancer gts is my very first car ... please forgive me if this is a dumb question... I have attached the picture... what are those for? Is it just there for style cuz I havent seen them flash or Illuminate...
I've honestly never noticed those before .... lol They're probably just reflective for some reason...?? haha
its probably there to make the rear more stylish and it probably glows at night if a light gets in contact.
yup, they are just reflectors. they do nothing, just something to fill the rear i guess. and btw,, I Love this car too!
They are required to be on the car in most states. It is a DOT standard and some state laws, if not most to, have a reflective device on the car.
Welcome man, and +1 to what dive_junkie said. And I guess to everyone else that said similar things but differently .
well first of all welcome to LT!! like dive said they are just reflectors...i took mine off to have them tinted like 2 weeks ago and havent really got to it...but then again cops havent said anything to me about it, so i guess its not a big deal here in PR...remember to introduce yourself to the LT community!! again welcome!!
reflectors... so that somebody would notice your car even if your lights aren't on while theirs are. kept seperate 'coz the rear lights ain't having them built in like the ones on old cars...
welcome to the forums and yeah they are reflectors you should come to the meet this sat as for anyone around the LA area
once i get around to it i am going to buy some small strip lighting and put it behind it... not sure yet i am going to wire it to the brake lights or to the turn signals... when ever i get to it i'll post some pic's!
Dumb reflectors just because they didn't have anogh reflection in the taillights to be legal in all states...plus the damn trunk is too tall to NOT have them there haha. Ever notice when you park next to older cars, how much TALLER our cars are? INSANE!
