do you need rev lights for mot

same as above do you need reverce lights for mot 1988 convertable :dontknow:

Nope don't think so. There are some posts aomewhere on here that tell you what you do need. I'm sure sopmeone will put a link in here for you

I'm 99.9% certain you dont - but don't quote me on that if it fails!

Similar one is they wont fail you if spare wheel is NOT in car, but will fail you if it IS in car and not legal tyre!

They're not mentioned so I guess not.

Nope reverse lights are not part of the test, the spare tyre doesnt even have to be legal to pass an mot hairyarse the problem here is testers going too far (ie doing things they arent allowed to) its worth knowing the rules  :wink:
