And worst comes to the worst just pop on some halogens for the test
That's what I do, I also do it to remind myself how good Hid's are

I don't think the rules have changed yet, as far as I'm aware they're changing at some point this year.
I work in an MOT garage and the tester where I work has said its to do with them not being adjustable- but obviously if they're factory fitted then they will go through as there's nothing you can do about it.
I've not done any research in to it; I was just letting you know what I'd heard.
Factory fitting ones have auto self levelling so they don't glare people, sorry if my reply sounded a bit arsey mate wasnt intended
That's a beauty. But I wouldn't fit a HID kit to it; the way I understand it, at some point during this year they will become MOT failures if not factory fitted.
Correct me if I'm wrong though.
Cheers Well I was a bit worried about the hids when i took it for the MOT tbh. The tester made it clear to me that he was not a fan and wouldn't hestitate to fail it if the beam pattern was poor, however he said the pattern was fine and could'nt fault it. He then proceeded to fail it becuase of brake inbalance
The MOT giveth with one hand and taketh away with the other.
Yeah i know lol. Was so pissed off at the time as all that was need was to remove the shim behind the brake pad that had corroded! 15 mins work! Least i learnt how to remove the callipers from it lol
mine failed for the same thing, brake imbalance and they went to clean the pads and the retaining pins were siezed all sorted now though! its such an annoying thing to fail for
It's a bit like when mine failed it's test on two front tyres that were fitted 10 days before... shows up on the history and makes me look like the kind of guy that doesn't care! Reality is I was just so unlucky, one bulged and the other puncturedI know and it shows up on the history as well Makes it look as if it's not looked after!
What have you got your eye on as a replacement?
seems cheap.
Didn't mention the remap on for sale thread...
.G.
not got one now.
