Default Yellow rear reflectors

Do the yellow rear reflectors on the rear bumper serve any purpose for us in the UK?? I'v not had them on any other car before.

Think I'll get my mate to wrap mine in black to blend in with the paintwork.

I hate to see any yellow bits stuck on that dont serve any purpose.

Why not go for the USA red lenses which can be illuminated by piggybacking onto rear side lights. These would look cool on a black car!

Not a bad idea but what are they like to get hold of? I thought all US crossfires had yellow ones on the rear.

Red in the rear in the states. If I ever come across some clear rear side markers you can have mine for free.

Yes, some USA owners have fitted our clear front markers at their rear, and these can be purchased from ACD Breakers if you wanted to take up this kind offer. A link to ADC is on our website at UK Crossfires - For owners of the Chrysler Crossfire in the UK. Im just at Newark if you wanted to check mine out

I have seen a few members who took the front clear side markers and were able to use them in the rear by flipping them and doing a little DIY instillation work.

I really would like to have them all around the car as I have them only on the front as well. I good deal has not presented itself however for me to acquire two more. Needswings use to sell them, when I asked Rob about them he said, "I do not know if I will ever be able to get them in again." (BUMMER!)

I do have some front yellow ones sitting on my parts shelf. If you would like I could send those to you, they at least have the housing for the bulb.

I have clear ones on the front and yellow (which I hate) on the rear.
I either want to change the rears to red or spray/wrap them in black to blend in with my black car.

Also how are the rears removed?

My yellow ones are the actual light housings not just the reflectors, I thought maybe you could try to make them red as I do not need them.

To get them out you just need a library/credit card. Slide them behind the light and it pops them right out. If they are being stubborn use a really small screw driver wrapped in a soft cloth to pry them out. It does not take much to get them out. They actually come out so easy you will be surprised they stay in there on there own.
