ditto.
also got pulled for the same reason, also passed MOT with them on (helps knowing the testers).

if they are not E marked then they are not legal and you can get fined and will not pass an MOT

I hope to be getting some rear light clusters but they are not E marked. Wot does this actually mean.
Also i think that they are not reflective so they would fail the MOT but according to http://www.ukmot.com/checklist/motcheck/motcheck_body.htm it says

"Rear reflectors
There must be two reflectors fitted reasonably symmetrically, securely attached and not obscured.
* Must be fitted to all vehicles first used on or after 1st April 1986, but if fitted, must be tested.
** Must be fitted to all vehicles first used on or after 1st April 1980."

Does this mean that if i fit 2 reflectors to the rear of the car then it will pass the MOT.

I would get E marked light clusters but they dont make them for 5 Door corsa's.
