Re: Side guard indicators
These are not required for UK MOT - just in case you wanted to get rid of them...

Re: Side guard indicators
I'm waiting to hear on this from the (semi)tame MOT man up the road. The wording in the MOT test blurb states you don't have to have side repeaters if the front and rear indicators wrap around onto the side of the car and are visible from the side. They kinda do on the FB but not sure if they do enough to satisfy a pernicious MOT man (and let's face it, most of them are).RamoNZ wrote:These are not required for UK MOT - just in case you wanted to get rid of them...
I'd like to hear it confirmed 100% before we start welding them up on my car

Re: Side guard indicators
When was it registered? Not that it matters for you but any 86ers might be able to show manufactured date prior and ditch them.mpk490p wrote:Good knowledgeRamoNZ wrote:You are correct, but only from 1986, which all our cars were made prior to......mines a 86
Not that there is many 86 and up...!
