Sparky Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 Hello guys,Just wondering will my car go through MOT without side repeaters because with the ZEP fenders there is no holes for the repeatersCheers Quote
Sparky Posted May 27, 2007 Author Posted May 27, 2007 Drill some holes?Like fuck!! ;)I dont "think" you need side repeaters if theres no holes for them. As long as it looks like they were never anythere its ok, i "think" ;)I can see the logic there Graeme just dont want to put the fenders on and then have to change them back over for the MOT Quote
Fogdoggydog Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 I think your right there. It's not a legal requirement for your car to have them (or any indicators for that matter), but if the car does have them they MUST be working. Quote
NeilH Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 your car will need side repeaters to pass the mot. unless u take it to a friendly garage. Quote
paul w Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 As long as the fronts are visible from the side then you dont need side repeaters,if you do need sum you could always get some mirrors with them built in the edges. Quote
Sparky Posted May 27, 2007 Author Posted May 27, 2007 On the EP91 the front indicators do stick out a bit but im not sure if they are visible from the sideAnyone confirm this?? As for mirrors I already have a set so thats out of the question ;) Quote
Kara GTT Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 If the car is a 1985 onwards it has to be fitted with side repeaters,unless the front indicators have extentions on them! Quote
NeilH Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 sparky, ignore the children. you will need side repeaters for your car to pass the mot. unless u can get the tester to ignore it for you. not exactly an unsafe vehicle without them is it. Quote
NeilH Posted May 27, 2007 Posted May 27, 2007 i was waitin for some cunt to find an internet site that would indicate a pass. congratulations. find another 10 sites if u want, im laughing at you. they dont put them there to look nice. and they dont fit them on our jap imports just to fuck a big hole in the wing.fuckin piss flap.

Kara GTT Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Yes like we said if its over a 1985 it has to have indicators Quote
Glanza_Ragger Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 In japland, the ep's dont have side repeaters. there not needed.Allthough in the uk we need them, hence why most ep's you see have stick on side repeaters ;) Quote
ken Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 i've been through 2 or 3 mot's with no side repeaters and no problems!? Quote
Sparky Posted May 28, 2007 Author Posted May 28, 2007 I dont "think" you need side repeaters if theres no holes for them. As long as it looks like they were never anythere its ok, i "think" ;)Im going to go with this ;)Cheers for the help guys Quote
Hodgy Posted May 29, 2007 Posted May 29, 2007 do ya fook as long as you have a little hump ont he side of your indicator like on the ep91 they are not needed the hump is there for a reason not to look pretty ;) Quote

Starletmeech Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 Are the ZEP fenders not flared? This might make the test for the hump on the front not vissable from the test point? but then again it is a meter away from the car! Quote
lobotomy Posted May 30, 2007 Posted May 30, 2007 On the EP91 the front indicators do stick out a bit but im not sure if they are visible from the sideThat's right, my Glanza passed 2 MOT's without side repeaters. Quote
Sparky Posted May 30, 2007 Author Posted May 30, 2007 That's right, my Glanza passed 2 MOT's without side repeaters.Good stuff!!!Thanks for that Lobo ;) Quote
