Failed MOT with projector HIDs

Featured Replies

Mine passed on the 27th of September, he did not even mention them, I asked the tester afterwards, he said if they are aligned and white no problem :happy:

Hey guys,

Just thought I would share my experience with

You all today. Just back from my mot and unfortunately failed due to not having "headlamp washers" or self levelling fitted. I have the xenon lamps fitted from the group buy and a 5k HID kit. Beam pattern was perfect he said. I questioned the fact that some cars come from factory with Xenons and no washers and I used the Nissan premiera as an example but he just responded saying anything built for the British and Irish market had to have washers and self levelling. I live in Northern Ireland btw so maybe a bit more strict over here with the mot centres I'm not really sure.

So unfortunately it's back to the originals for me, can't be bothered having to swap annually so may just sell them on once they are out, so if anyone is interested let me know will come with lights and everything needed etc.

Also while your here can anyone reccommend a good white bulb that DOESN'T have any sort of Blue film surrounding them as I hate the blue tint reflecting in the back of the lamps when not switched on.

Thanks guys

This passed somewhere around Belfast recently...

Bodged to the headlight washers.
