Side Repeaters
Ian Pearson - 14/7/03 at 05:35 AM

For those of you who have passed the SVA test recently, where did you place the side repeaters to satisfy the visibility regs? I don't want to put them on the scuttle or cycle wings, but not sure if they'll be visible enough on the side panels.

Regards, Ian.

I'm just about to drill holes for side repeaters too,i've been searching all the pics and decided that most are a on the side panel below the bonnet 1/3 distance from the scuttle.

Its not something you would move and plug after SVA so i'm going bang my holes there

I've recently passed and mine are on the side panels right below the scuttle midpoint (can't remember the height at the moment 400mm??check SVA manual).

Cheers

Ben
