Question

Are blue side lights legal for the mot or will it fail?

Answer 1

my hubby had them in his car and was pulled over by the police who told him they were illegal as they mimic the police, ambulance etc so i would swap them back to the originals rather than fail the mot over something so trivial

Answer 2

Failure.  The reason is :-

a. A front position lamp shows a light other than white to the front, (or yellow if incorporated in a yellow headlamp)

b. A rear position lamp shows a light other than red to the rear.

Answer 3

Sidelights are known in law as obligatory lights and must be white to front,red to rear.

Answer 4

Its a failure

Answer 5

It will fail, blue side lights are illegal. To pass, your vehicle must not house any "neons" or flashy lights as they oppose the directions of the Highway Code.
