Rear Reflectors

Hi,
Can anyone confirm if the reflectors have to be vertical as I am struggling to find it in the SVA notes.
Cheers,
Pat...

its best if you go and go to a web site that someone has been and done the sva and ask them its worth a try

Have seen a few cars which passed SVA without lights and reflectors at 90 degrees to rear arch. IIRC there is a tolerance for fitting of lights (Other than fog light, which must be vertical) HTH

Reflectors were always a grey area under construction and use regs the SVA seems much the same however you can get nice angled rubber mounte reflectors that were used on the original Lotus 7, Morgans MG Types and the like -- not e marked but should be OK with most inspectors.
