I'd take fogs off for MOT, cos if you take the bulb out it is still a light, and if any lights are fitted they MUST work.

Ok.

Cheers

I'm going to leave the working one in, and remove the broken unit. 

That'll be ok yeah?

Not sure if you need the pair or not. Just remove both to be safe.

Yeah just remove it for MOT and then put it back in for after the MOT. Makes a lot more sense.

You dont need front foglights, thats why a lot of cheaper versions of car models dont have them.

So providing it isnt smashed and sharp, or bright and blinding, it doesnt matter wether 0 1 or 2 work.

Mine havnt ever been turned on for an mot tbh.

Front fogs not checked, you just need one working rear (on the correct side)
