aslong as the right colour light is emitted out it'll pass mot eg indicators orange
fog tail and stop orange

reverse can be any colour by the mot as its not part of the test

i thought if its there it has to be white, but it dont need to be there...?

if u imagine a red reverse light, rather dangerous to other road users no?

white/red/orange... anything else is illegal to show at the rear

you can buy seperate fog lamps neway? some can look good like the 206 one. a side repeater wont pass cos the lights have to be a certain amount of amps eg side repeaters less amps than front indicators.
