Small lights

I just realised something while looking at some pics from the Time Attack. The Atom has really little lights and blickers, you can also see it on their site. Are these also SVA approved? Where can you buy them?

Those are only the sidelights, the headlights are tucked away till you need them then they are opened out of the nosecone aren't they? Also on the rear view there are no reflectors which would be a fail.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

They are standard lucas indicator and side lights from the early landrover. Cheap as chips on ebay.
On the Atom, the headlights do not fold away.
Under sva rules, you do not need headlights if you register a car as a daylight vechile only, but I think you will find that they are not on the car at all for appearance.

So are those 8 lights enough for a daylight SVA vehicle? Or do you still need reflectors and a foglight?

You do need a fog light, not sure about a reflector. The atom has a square fog on the rear.

Are there any brackets for sale for these lights? I was thinking about putting the rear lights into the wings. Where can I buy mountings for these?
