    Yes, cover them. They are not legally required, just very useful.

    I have the reflective tape on the back of the sleeper, the headboard hides them, DOT hasn’t said nothing “yet”……. Even on my former 379, similar set up and again, DOT said nothing.

    True, I had a friend that a DOT pulled him over just for not having the reflective tape only. I guess it depends if the DOT got laid the day before or not if he pulls you over. :D
