HID's..

[_Jake]

hid are ilegal anyhow an the pig up heer love tae do people for HIDS

No there not..

[pie]

^^^ they fail mot straight away

only aloud if they come from factory

[Jack]

Not an MOT fail - mine pass fine.

[pie]

or its on the new rules for mot or somthing

[Jack]

The rules say if there's headlamp levellers or washers present, they have to work. If they're not present, its not a fail.

In terms of the MOT, so long as the systems that are present work and the beam pattern is Ok, HIDs will pass.

Mine didnt fail either although there only the bulbs and not a proper kit,

[Phil_d]

I take mine out for the mot just in case they do fail but they would probably pass anyway, my boss would probably fail everything he could, think hes worried that letting things go would look very bad especially when my car parks outside every day haha, but as jack says, The rules say if there's headlamp levellers or washers present, they have to work. If they're not present, its not a fail.

[waggygsi]

well heer in ayr if ure seen to have them in your car you get a ticket regardless unless its got tht headlight leveling washers an that or from factory

[staggy_gsi]

I've been led to believe if HID's are fitted to a car (aftermarket), unless there is headlamp washers fitted as well, they will fail. Thats the way my message from VOSA read anyhow

[Southie]

Your better off buying 1000000 candle watt torches and fitting them to the roof of your car than wiring up HIDs to a Nova.
