sva fail,but I'm still happy

Failed sva this morning,but only on a few minor points one of which I wouldn,t have been able to rectify at the test station.
I have a fueling problem that only came to light on friday when I was having the engine mapped for emmissions,Got round it by using the power commander and it was touch and go weather it would pass emissions,but they passed so I'm happy.
Examiner at Nottingham Martin was very helpful and he commented on the quality of my build which was nice.
Need to sort overfueling problem and get a couple of small jobs done,then back for a retest.

What are the small jobs it failed on.
Mine failed Last Thursday, I've put right about 80% so far, looking for a retest mid Jan sometime.

Failed on:
Clocks don't illuminate when lights switch on.(minor wireing fix)
Wing mirrors (need to fit some different ones)
Rear lights and indicators slightly too low
(will be able to raise ride height with shocks)
Front lights( need raising around 15mm, easy fix)
Thats it, nice and easy.
