Headlights
« on: 23 December 2011, 02:40 »
Front driver side, two of the brackets that hold my headlight on are completely broken (snapped in half).  Is that going to fail my MOT?  Light doesn't move about or anything, and works fine.

Ah that's good then.  The brackets have been broken ever since the accident in April.
