Hey all,
I was curious about the two-eared Koito reflectors that were found on early 40s. Were the two on the side and one on the back all red or were they a mix of orange and red? Thanks!

Edit, also just for clarity. I did try and look at other old photos, but I am color blind so its hard for me to tell orange from red sometimes. Im not just asking a lazy question. :)

Yes, one on each side and one on the back. All red, no amber. Not all were Koito, some were domestic brands installed at the port. My '64 was missing all 3, but the holes were still there. The hole spacing matched Stratolite reflectors perfectly.
