Not long. Took me probably 10-15 minutes. But I poked around. |

with just simple hand tools you can swap one out and have it all back together inside of 20 minutes. I should know, I did exactly that in the factory parking lot at homecoming two years ago. |

Aluminum highly polished or chrome plated would be good enough. Most likely chrome plated. |

I never took mine out when I had the Firebolt, but it looks like a fairly simple part. Why doesn't somebody(I don't have the equipment) just make a mold of the OEM part and cast some aluminum parts? Secondary machining and polish the reflector - lifetime reflector. Drop-in replacement, everybody wins... Z |
