hid

[The Radman]

is it true that the mot test will be failing after market hid kits from next yr? as ive just got a kit for the wifes fiesta but dont want to fit them and then remove them again

[georgie1]

remember a few years back if your headlights had a blue tint in bulb was a fail

[Joe-Tait]

In a new fiesta like your wifes it will be fine

[stucos]

Had been a failure for years just ppl turn a blind eye.also illigal under construction and use regulations.as all vehicles with hid must have heaflamp washers and self leveling headlights .plus reflectors in normal headlights are no. use for hids that's why they blind every fuker

the fiestas are projector lens type,so hopefully be ok then?

[stucos]

Does it have head lamp washers and self leveling head lights

[sixaxles]

it'll probably be the same as having a decat exhaust, just take it to an mot station that you know well and it'll pass

Does it have head lamp washers and self leveling head lights


CheeRS stu

nope,it does have electric lamp leveller but you have to do it yourself with a switch on the dash

[stucos]

Legaly mate you cant fit them ,but that wount stop you,and from the beginning of next year if you present a car for mot without a cat when one should be fitted,it is an istant mot fail wheather it meets the emission levels or not,as the mot regs are getting a lot tighter from jan 2012 even your air bag light needs to work
