After researching a bit more, I found that if you toggle "Cockpit Global Illumination", whether from off to on, or on to off, it removes the crazy reflections. Toggling back to the previous selection does not re-enable them either. So there is a work around for the moment(albeit probably a broken function) but a toggle option in the Special menu would be better IMO.
