Will the following be ok?
1. smoked side repeaters (and i mean smoked lol)
you can see them above
2. Sabelt Harnesses... now the rear bolts are covered via my false floor, will this be a problem? also are they ok to pass?
3. Being to low? Can it be to low and fail as a result
4. Camber/Tracking what if this is out is it a fail?
5. Anything else i need to think about?
Thanks
Sam

Should be ok being as low as you are as long as the wheels dont catch and that it can get onto the ramp for MOT

thats a show plate buddy its usually:
now... my MOT station said its a free retest if the car stays there but not if u have to take it away (they'd recharge the entire fee) but i've read the following:
http://www.motester.co.uk/retest.html
are they making a quick penny or am i wrong and they just thought i wudnt be returning it next day?

When mine was in the other week and it failed they said if I took it off the premises then I would have to pay for the retest.
Other places I have taken it to in the past have let me take it home at night and drop it back the next day for its retest... just depends where you go

You get a free retest on the re-test items. On anything else they will charge you again. You are allowed to take the car home to replace a bulb or something simple basically. Not take the car home to have the chassis legs replaced if you get me....

wrong if the mot station charge a retest fee they can charge you what ever they like upto full fee of £44.10p evern if its just a bulb there is a list of iterms that do not need a full test that have to be repaired with in 24 hours of the test

just look in my mot hand book the listed iterms are free with in 24hours my mistake but anything elese like brakes cant be fast tracked on mot computer so expect a retest fee cos you have to use an mot slot and be logged on for atleast 35mins ish
