reflective tape/panels please

[mark2jag]

Can anyone tell me where I can get some reflective tape/marker panels to stick on my vario panniers. You'd have already guessed im after the blue/yellow battenberg type pattern. Do I want to look like a plod bike, errrr NO. Do i want to create doubt in peoples minds and stop them tailgating me and causing a rather nasty accident which hurt rather a lot, well YES (this was in a car sat at some traffic lights when some wanker in a nissan qashqai ran straight into me at about 30-40 mph, didnt even brake). I did ask someone else of this parish to have a look for me as he has a contact, but have emailed a few times but got no joy, so assuming he must be a rather busy chap, so am throwing the question out to a wider audience......

Oh and if its any use Im referring to the scotchbrite reflective type panels as apparently they are the brightest and can be seen the furthest distance away........

Search ebay for '3M reflective'.....

I would recommend these guys: http://www.beseenonabike.co.uk/

Really good range of different tapes and a fast turnaround on orders. The back of my Touratwat panniers now look like a festive HGV!

I got 1m of Red 3M Reflective Tape (5cm wide), the stuff they put on lorries, for about £5 from ebay. I've put it on the outer rear edge of my Zega Pro cases. TT were charging a stupid amount for the exact same thing!

I'd check on any Pan European forum. Every one you see has them on the panniers.

Give Steve 'TwowheelHumvee' of this parish Humvee Graphics (4th one down might be just what you're looking for) a shout. He can supply what you need. He could even do custom stickers if you want.
