You could use a stick-on like this

Local auto parts stores should have them for cheap.

Any reason reflectors have to be round? I was thinking something more like a 1/2"
tape along the bottom of the corners.

In the $? Not me! I sure wish tho...
But...my Jeep has its own savings account (which is now pretty empty - time to start
saving for that Atlas again). Its just that it needed to be done, and since it was
all apart, might as well get as much done now as I could. He was really nice and
didnt charge me for all of the hours of labor he really had into it.

Not sure about the covers, but, when the stock tail lights are on, you can see them
from the sides.

Re: It stops. Fast.
 

For my TJ I got a package of assorted sizes and shapes of these decals at
Walmart or some place like that for a couple of bucks. I think I took some
of the rectangular decals and wrapped them around the ends of the rear
bumper, that way they were visible from the side and the back.

The marker lights are enexpensive and easy to install. Don't let <$10 get
you in trouble/injured.
