I am not completely sure of the laws in Jersey, but from what I noticed looking at cars lately, they either have an orange reflector in the headlight or on the bumper. What I plan on doing for inspection, just to be safe, is getting a small set of reflectors from Pep Boys or something and just double-sticking them onto the sides of the bumper until I pass. It may look kinda weird but logically it sounds like it would work, plus I could take them off within an hour so it shouldn't mess up the paint (depending on the tape used). Sure beats taking the headlights apart again.
