there are 4 different reflectors for the 3rd gen max
89-91 GXE
89-91 SE
92-94 GXE
92-94 SE

in 89-91(the upper picture), the top portion is larger and has maxima written in it
in 92-94(lower picture), the portions are more equal sized adn it says MAXIMA in the lower portion

89-91: SE (shown in upper pic) is black with black trim; GXE is red with chrome trim
92-94: SE is black trim around the reflectors and is smoked; GXE has chrome trim (shown in bottom pic)

I have a 94 Maxima SE, and it has the Red Reflector, not the smoked one? Is this correct?

I have a 94 GXE

and mine has the red piece but no chrome - instead it is black. Is this normal? To tell you the truth, I have never paid any attention to it.

Re: I have a 94 GXE

yo

I was wondering, can my red one be replaced with a smoke one? I really think it looks phatter than the red one. If anyone knows where I can pick one up, please let me know.

Thanks

yeah, they are all interchangeable
to take them off, I think you take off the inside trunk liner and from there you can see the necessary bolts

try a junkyard or people parting out cars on this forum

if not, you could buy one from a Nissan dealer $$

Well thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate it. If anyone has any cars they are parting out, let me know, I would be interested in that back reflector piece if its smoke. Thanks
