non exposed nuts

Does the SVA require all nuts to be covered or only external ones ie the ones that are visible from outside the car.

the tester has a metal "kneecap"and will wander round to see if the hex heads can touch said kneecap,also relates to inside of your cockpit

best bet is to buy a packet of mixed covers that you see at show and cover anything you can! Thinks you are really keen then, and don't cost much. I'm thinking of getting a few to put on rear suspension as makes life so much easier when you need to undo something which normally gets covered in road grime.

When I had my sva the examiner looked around the car like theconrodkid said, also in the cockpit, a place where I didn't think of covering, was the bolt that held down the battery clamp, it couldn't be seen and you had to twist at a funny angle to feel it but nether the less it had to be covered up. also, i covered up tube p on the chassis (can normally be seen) just a bit of 22mm copper piping lagging does it nice.

Hope this helps
