Just wanted to confirm that the rear stop\tail\indicator lights don't have to be vertical, only the fog light??

I dont think they have to be vertical, only the fog light. There are a lot of cars on here that would have failed if they had to be vertical...

They do need to meet the visablity regulations though.

Don't need to be vertical, only the fog and the reverse I think if you've got one fitted.

I've heard some people have had problems with the reflectors on the rear lights not reflecting enough light when sitting at an angle, but people have passed SVA with their rear lights sitting at an angle.
I guess it just a case of how much angle you have on them.

Definately rear fog and reverse and there is always a debate about reflectors.
Best to mount the lot vertical until.

No reverse needed for sva. Rear lamps are sloping on mine, Sva man stuck reflectors on the rear wing under the lights as I didn't have any and passed it.

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