I need some help with MOT regulations for Trike foglights ?;)
Do they need to be 'e' marked as fog lights ?....how bright,size,position etc...
I have been changing the rear of my trike and I have taken off the nasty big car foglights and I want to know what I can use !:D
Many thanks for your anticipated help.... grovel grovel :)

Look Here (http://www.motuk.co.uk/manual_910.htm) There is no legal requirement to fog lamps as far as I can see.

Didn't put one on mine as they're 'optional' as far as I can make out. And less is better in my view, no extra wiring jobs to do.

If they are fitted, they must work is the only rule. Shaggy's right.

Yep, I had fog lights fitted, mot tester said i didnt need them so off they came :D

My local Trike Mot'r is 'Predator' in Welwyn Garden City....so I thought I would pop along and make sure he agreed with all you (wise and wonderful) guys!
At first he said ...'umm....err...yes you need them' and I said 'are you really really sure and he said...'I will go and have a look in the manual' and he came back and said 'nagh ya don't '. (verbatum)
:D:D:D:D:D:D
