    I was browsing through the latest Dinos being sold online and wanted to ask the forum for comments on where the Dino's rear reversing light should be located on the back panel of an E series.
    Where do you feel the correct location is?
    Thanks in advance.


    The Dino Compendium has these great shots clearly showing the rear reversing light centered left to right. The fore-aft alignment is set so that when looking vertically downward the lens protrudes past the sheet metal edge.
    The light housing body is mounted to the panel splitting the paint waterline.

    Just looked at mine and that looks correct. Pretty sure mine was in the original location as there were no additional holes after stripping paint.

    Like Bluebottle, my E Series has the reverse light center bottom, just as in the pictures. I believe it is held on by 4 fasteners. If yours' isn't there, the holes may be:)

    The bottom edge of the reversing light flange lays level with the bottom of the valance, any higher and the bulb holder will hit the cut out in the panel.

    The black paint line then follows the top of the reverse light box.
