Full details

The Hella Reflector (8RA 009 362-001) is an essential safety component designed for automotive and commercial vehicle owners who need reliable, ECE-compliant signaling.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this reflector suitable for vertical mounting?

This model is specifically designed for horizontal fastening. Mounting it vertically may compromise its reflective efficiency and is not recommended.

What does ECE R3 compliance mean?

ECE R3 is an international regulation that defines the technical requirements for retro-reflecting devices on vehicles, ensuring they meet specific visibility standards.

Are the mounting screws included?

Yes, the product comes with the necessary fastening material to complete the installation.

Can I use this on a motorcycle?

Yes, as long as you have a flat, horizontal surface to bolt the reflector onto and it complies with your local vehicle lighting regulations.

How thick is the reflector unit?

The total height or thickness of the unit is 49mm.

Is the housing waterproof?

The unit is designed for external use and is weather-resistant, though it is not intended to be submerged in water.

Troubleshooting

Reflector becomes loose over time

Check the mounting bolts for tightness and ensure that vibration-dampening washers were used during the initial installation.

Lens appears dull or dirty

Clean the exterior surface with a soft microfiber cloth and automotive-grade lens cleaner to restore maximum retro-reflectivity.

Fastening bolts do not line up with existing holes

Do not force the bolts, as this may crack the housing. Measure the center-to-center distance of your existing holes and ensure they match the Hella mounting specification.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets ECE R3 safety standards
  • Durable construction for long-term use
  • Includes required mounting hardware
  • Reliable Hella quality and fitment

Cons

  • Requires specific horizontal mounting surface
  • Bolt-on installation requires drilling or existing holes
  • Limited to one specific shape and color configuration

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires access to the mounting surface and basic hand tools. Ensure the surface is flat to prevent stress fractures on the lens during the tightening process.

  1. Placement: Choose a horizontal area that is free of obstructions and complies with local regulations regarding reflector placement height.
  2. Drilling: If no existing holes are present, mark the spacing based on the reflector's base, drill pilot holes, and ensure the surface is clean.
  3. Fastening: Align the unit and use the provided fastening hardware to bolt the reflector securely in place.
  4. Care: Clean the lens regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh solvents that could scratch the surface or cloud the plastic, which would decrease its reflective performance.
