Chevron kits help vehicles stand out and contribute to safer driving conditions for everyone using the road network. The following sections cover common kit choices and how to fit them correctly.

What Are Citroën Chevron Kits?

A chevron kit consists of durable vinyl graphics designed for vehicle application. They can be used to personalise a vehicle’s appearance or increase its visibility to other road users.

Designed for durability, the graphics resist rain, sunlight, and regular road use over extended periods. Most Citroën safety chevron kits use high-visibility red and yellow striping on the back of the vehicle. As a result, motorists can recognise the vehicle more easily both day and night.

What Kits Are Available?

For Berlingo models, dedicated kits fit neatly onto the rear doors and panels.

Owners of Dispatch vans can obtain kits designed specifically for post-2016 standard models.

Citroën Relay chevron kits are available for a variety of panel configurations, including high-roof and Luton-style variants. They can help operators meet the recommendations set out in Chapter 8 of the UK Traffic Signs Manual.

Benefits of Using Chevron Kits

One of the main advantages of chevron kits is improved visibility in poor lighting conditions. Roadside maintenance vehicles working after dark are far easier for motorists to recognise when fitted with chevrons. Greater visibility may help lower the likelihood of accidents and improve safety for workers and road users alike.

In addition to safety, vehicle graphics can support marketing efforts. A vehicle can feature branding, contact information, or promotional messaging. Personalised graphics can make a vehicle stand out from standard factory finishes.

How to Apply a Chevron Kit

Before installation, thoroughly clean the surface where the graphics will be applied. A clean surface improves adhesion and helps achieve a better finish.

After cleaning, align the graphics accurately before securing them in place. Using a squeegee during installation helps remove trapped air and smooth the material evenly. When fitted correctly, the graphics can remain effective for many years before replacement is required.

Important Considerations

A few practical considerations should be assessed before installation. These markings are generally associated with commercial vehicles operating in roadside, utility, or maintenance environments.

Like any external graphic, they will eventually show signs of ageing. Peeling, fading, or wear may occur after extended use, making replacement necessary. Keeping the graphics in good condition supports ongoing adherence to safety expectations.

Final Thoughts

Fitting a Citroën chevron kit can make a vehicle easier to identify in a wide range of conditions. Proper fitting ensures the graphics remain effective for years. Further details on vehicle graphics and adhesive solutions can be found through App Tape.
