I have more lenses than I can ever use, but what do you use for the reflector behind the lens?

Hey Tom, I use these. http://www.modelmakershop.com/modelmakershop/index.php?cat=c73_Photo-Etched-Parts.html&XTCsid=9794ij5dkq1ijlff23ngb95jn4

They have a photo etched backing that has facets etched into them and then they have a red, amber or clear lens. VERY realistic looking!MVC005F-vi.jpg

They have some interesting looking stuff . Are they in Europe and how is the shipping ? Time , cost , etc . . .

Yes, they are in Europe but shipping wasn't too bad. I think it was a week and a half, maybe two weeks? They are good people to deal with. I've bought from them several times. They have all kinds of neat stuff. Mostly catering to big rigs though.
