Surely mounting them on the rear arch makes them less visible. Especially at junctions?


I completely agree, I do not understand some of these stupid rules!!!

5 Degree Rule?

So the headlamp position seems to be the better position for side repeaters. However, just to check, how will this meet the "5 degree" rule? And what precisely does this rule say, please?

Which page is it on, in the IVA manual? I need to be sure, before I start drilling holes - AGAIN!!

OK - so now I've found the official bit in the IVA test manual. It states "...from the rear, 5 deg to 60 deg.". Yes, but relative to what??? It don't give no datum. How can one establish the correct position without checking these angles? Any help to clarify this point will be gratefully received.

Thanks in advance.

Proably expensive, and my mirrors are already mounted on scuttle. I prefer Gavin174's solution (see on this thread), fixing repeaters into headlamp shell sides. Just wanted to verify checking position a little more precisely.

Just passed at Nottingham with them on front arches, seemed happy enough, only checked with wheels straight.
