#1: My 206 Service and MOT(rear lights failed) Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Tue May 17, 2011 11:26 am ---- Hi people..so i took my car to Halfords/Halfrauds to get my car full service and MOT because it was cheapest one i found. The service went well and all then came to service..
My cars front suspension ball joint failed so got that replaced cool.
Then came my black tinted rear lights which failed MOT because it wasn't passing through 50% light,even though i driven past police cars etc and haven't got pulled over once for complain.
If the lights has MOT failure does that mean their not road legal??
These lights i am talking about by the way
Luckily i still have ph1 rear lights to use to take it to MOT again for pass..
But can someone answer my question please.

Lol think i would rather pass and i guess lesson learned to not buy rear lights done by people themselves,i'm not really complaining since i only paid a tenner for them.
It just means i need go get a new set of black rear lights again.

#12: Re: My 206 Service and MOT(rear lights failed) Author: Jordan_xsi, Location: IpswichPosted: Tue May 17, 2011 12:16 pm ---- Mine would fail an MOT epicly so i just take them off for the MOT and switch them back after, i was sold them as legal and i have the paperwork to say that so in the event i get pulled over ill show them that and say i didnt know but as a by the by i havent ever been pulled for them in a year and a half....
#13: Re: My 206 Service and MOT(rear lights failed) Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Tue May 17, 2011 12:25 pm ---- lol your a lucky guy then,i've been driving with them since December and haven't been pulled over once or anything. But i have learned my lesson to not buy lights done by individuals.
So where can you actually get legit black lights,i will probably end up buying black lexus lights in future,worried that the black angel headlights on ebay are fake too now lol.

The most common pull on mods is tinted windows, load exhaursts lights can't be measured at the road side like windows just down to how bothered the individual officer feels at the time.
#18: Re: My 206 Service and MOT(rear lights failed) Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Tue May 17, 2011 1:54 pm ---- Well i have got ph1 lights on my 206(original were ph2 but sold 1 side) and the indicator wasn't so bad compared to brakes showing.
Well i learnt my lesson,guess they fit perfectly for shows as i think they look cool in person lol.
I will probably end up getting black lexus lights some point as their cheap,can someone tell me the difference between real and fake rear lights/headlights etc?? Only by price?
