I have some smoked rear lights, pics are in my project thread:

http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=662125&pid=8853683

yesterday the police pulled me over and said my tail lights look kind of pink..theyre coloured red bulbs but I think the white ish glass lens makes it look kind of pink. Idk, can anyone enlighten me on the legality of these lights? I already assume they're not MOT legal as there's no reflective strip but I assume I can get one of those stick on reflective stickers for that?. I just want to be able to drive about without being pulled. I dont want to change the lights as they suit the car colour well.

Any help cheers.

Holes in the actual lights will need filing/sanding down though except the brake light hole to allow the led to fit through and dont forget the leds need to be p21's with opposite pins.
