number for recovery service in case you have a bad fail and they don't let you drive home?
A glass half empty comment, but better to be prepared......... ?

Well I have break down cover which covers any car I'm driving through AA, not sure if it would cover the kit car though lol
Although luckily I do have a mate driving down in a van for moral support and to take tools etc down

Double sided adhesive tape saved me having a fail.
Forgot to say best of luck, and enjoy it (yes, you can).

Speaking of cameras, don't forget to take a copy/piccy of your IAC when you pass  'cos they'll keep it when you register.

Depends when I did my SVA I got told to take all the plumbing foam off of the front arms as it wasn't "permanent" and promply
failed on shape edges that in protected..... So alot depends on the IVA tester.
Bit of Luck, be curtious and go with the flow.
If Worst comes to the Worst you will have a list of bad bits to fix....

That's right, it has all changed with IVA. All padding/covering has to either permanent, or if on a serviceable item removable without
destroying it, and the equivalent of OEM.

elastic bands.
These saved me from a fail. During SVA test I had to run into the nearest office and beg the receptionist to give me 6 red elastic bands. This was on
the advice from Mark at MAC#1, Used them for a throttle return spring on the carbs. and it passed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also wheel nut spanner, he might want to check the stud threads have enough threads engauged.
