Mine had a 3rd light and it didn't make any difference. I had swapped my bulbs for LED ones so all I did at the test was put the original filament bulbs in and he was ok with it.

I liked the idea though of a higher level brake light seen as how the others are so low and the car is low. I put mine right at the top of the back panel and it looked OK on the road.

Just a thought.

altough headlights have been modified do they have an arrow on the lens pointing to the kerb if not then technicaly should not pass also dont think the mirrors will pass field of vision and do think a centre brake light will help

Well done matt the car looks really nice, i just hope you have more luck than me with the fuel filler on the back panel as mine is a bitch to fill up at the pump. I am planning to change to a top fill at some point, just another job on the list that never ends

I have used a bendy nozzle funnel to fill it up so far as i haven't been to a petrol pump, thanks for the warning, i'll stand by with a load of paper towels on my first attempt - if its rubbish i'll probably just use the hose technique suggested rather than move the cap.


Thanks for the great comments, i cant wait to get it on the road!! and get it to some track days and shows too
