Tail light blackouts in Ohio
So folks, got a warning yesterday about my black outs on my vette. Apparently the law states that you need at least 2 red reflectors on the back of your car. Has anyone kept their black outs and installed something to keep them legal on the back of their Vette? I know you can buy reflectors and such but I also want to keep it from looking cheesy too.

I've seen cars with blackouts so dark that you could barely see the brake lights in the daytime. I'm not sure about the motor vehicle law, but I'd think the manufacturer might incur some civil liability in the case of a rear end crash where the brake lights are difficult to see.
