Rear Lights: Yey or Ney?

[Whatmot]

well at last my chavvy lights came from the US. What do people think?



well either if you dont like them, im kind of stuck with them :lol: the only thing that did worry me is that the indicators are red not amber, will that matter for the mot?

other than that i just need to fit my new bumper (when its made), numberplate, numberplate light and a fog light

You'll fail the MOT. Only Imports are allowe dthre red running/indicator combinations. You'll probobly find they arent e-marked either which is a fail if the tester takes that much attention. Tis the sole reason I havent ordered a set.

the tester is my uncle, so he might let it slide. the bulbs are the same ones from the orignal lights, if there to bright ill have to paint them. ill buy some cheap indicator lights, possibly some dome lr lights and fit them to the bumper.

If he values his testing cert he wont. Sorry to be a stickler but there are way to many cars with illegal and hard to see rear light clusters on the road. I've lost count of the number of things that I've almost steamrollered becaus I cant see their indicators/brake lights or they havent wired the clusters up right.

The light clusters on the Vit are bad enough without making them any worse, I'd recommend you keep these for show and get the UK spec ones.

if you worried that there too weak then to fear, they lit the barn up that its kept in. if your concerned, ill fit some extra clusters to the bumper, that way im dual lighted. i do appreciate the comments, i prefer help than people slaging them off

right so heres my plan. im going to keep the current lights but ill put some extra indicators and brake/rear lights on the bumper. ill also put two extra retro reflectors on the bumper too. in addition to the current brake lights, ill add a high level led brake light in the rear window (which i was going to do anyway). i know this sounds alot, but im not wasting my chavvy lights now.
