A few days ago there was a couple of pictures posted of a red corsa b with its rear lights painted in some sort of light tint paint, someone said you can buy the stuff from Halfords and do it ya self. Just wondering if they are road legal and will they pass an MoT with them (MoT due nex month)
Thanks

Not necessarily - I had pink reversing lights on my Sport but it wasn't old enough to need an MOT.

i didnt think the reversing lights had to show or is that just that you dont have to have them on both sides?

ull get pulled for not having any reflectors. People with the Lexus light, and the clear white ones are always getting pulled up here, and have to stick reflectors on their bumpers
