My mot is due tomorrow and would like to know if my nearside passenger side wing mirror would fail the mot. I can see out of the wing mirror easily, doesn't really affect my driving. I've been told as long as the driver's wing mirror and interior rear view mirror are fine then the nearside one doesn't matter?

thank you

To my knowledge it will prob fail due to it being cracked, Try getting a stick on mirror for time being, but your housing is broken aswell. Can't say tbh
-
fail mate i'd get down a scappy for a temp replacement
-
for MOT you need drivers mirror and one other, this can be the interior mirror. Tape that one up so you have no sharp edges and you'll probably just get an advisory
-
^^^^^^^^what he said^^^^^^^^^^^ It will pass
-
Wazzer is right will be a pass and advise about it
-
Deemed as sharp edges due to incomplete assembly
Fail
:smiley:

thats what i was told last year when some ignorant sod clipped my wing mirror on the near side and the MOT bloke said it must be replaced otherwise its a fail so he must of been referring to the edging etc

Okay thank you guys, i'll tape it up tomorrow.. another thing, brake pad light came on a few month ago, what's the legal limit on brake pads?

As far as I'm aware brakes are only tested on efficiency, but I may be wrong...

save yourself the hassle if you want a quick fix and take it to halfrauds, did it on my brother 323f and they only charged about 60 for pads (cheap i know) but they got him through his MOT whilst he sourced his own brake set up, and they do free brake checks so take advantage

Pads can be had cheap enough from ECP using forum discount, and a monkey could change them :grin:
