The conspicuity tape you added meets the reflector requirements. Essentially, the rear must have a red facing reflector on each side visible from 500'. The tape will meet that requirement. The reflectors don't have to be part of the taillight.

Might want to look closely here -if you want to fully meet FMVSS 108 standards -especially if you have a > 30' length trailer that is > 80" wide and or > 10,000 lb GVWR.

You need all 12 items as stated in the link posted above
Link above again

We just bought a Ragen FA3005 and it doesn't actually meet the FMVSS 108 standards So will be contacting Ragen concerning this issue and a couple of others.

I flush mounted an LED turn signal right in front of the steps of my FA3005. It makes those knuckleheads that drive in your blind stop take notice. PM me your email and I'll shoot you a pic.
