Morettes or Crystals ftw

Pm JayMartell on here and ask him if he wants to sell his genuine ones. I think he was splitting his car.

Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 5:40 am ---- my car failed on the same thing so what i did was took the light out took all the bulb out and poured thew water down the sink, there was quite a lot of water btw, then put them over the ARGA over night to get rid of condensation then put it back in took in to the MOT station and it passed!!!
#8: Re: MOT Failure on one thing that I bought from info! Author: danlouiee, Location: Plymouth, DevonPosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 5:57 am ---- Yeah it wasn't just the condensation to fail! It Was the continental beam which failed they couldn't get the correct beam pattern:(

Author: Jordan_xsi, Location: IpswichPosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 6:26 am ---- Its not rare that second hand masked crystals will fail an MOT, mine failed as they couldnt be leveled as a couple of the clips snapped, just find a small local garage and slip the guy an extra £10.

#15: Re: MOT Failure on one thing that I bought from info! Author: danlouiee, Location: Plymouth, DevonPosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 7:23 am ---- Yeah but it not failed because it's masked the garage who I took it to, family friend, said how nice the car was looking! Ita because of the continental beam and they can't get the correct beam pattern:(
