Side Repeaters Removal

[Mintsauce]

Yeah I'm thinking of removing my side-repeaters and so I've asked around a few mechanics and the answer I keep getting is that as long as you have no holes you don't need 'em, and it is only a MOT requirement if they are on the car at the time 
Now all I need is the time and money to get it done.....

But then my friend was stopped by the police in his '90 golf and the guy said he could charge him 30 quid for each missing side repeater, but as he was a bit of a golf enthusiast himself he let him off with a warning!!

i picked up a couple of small square gti badges which push fit into the repeater recess. i got them off a b-reg golf from my local scrappy.

I work at a MOT station and we golf with side reapters removed and the tester said as long as there not
there before the test it doesnt matter.

So remove them if you want, its legal.

Some MOT centres seem to have their own rules though and will fail you for no side repeaters. When i had my white golf it had no side repeaters just wolfsburg badges where they would normaly be and i had to go and buy some stick on caravan repeaters for the MOT.
