A car MUST have rear reflectors fitted By law, your standard lights will have them built in but the lexus lights dont normally have them built in therefore you have to fit seperate reflectors. The reflectors do not have to be fitted to the rear lamps, just somewhere visable on the rear of your car. Its also a MOT failure to not have rear reflectors fitted although i dont think many police officers would pull you over for not having them fitted...

Stick em to magnets for mot time, then they're easy to take off again

I used to put the standards back on for the MOT, i used to have clear ones and the reflectors were really bright, never once got stopped though.

If you change or swap your backlights, then by law youve gotta have a reflector so that your car can be seen at night time.
