As far as i know they are optional at the moment. Personally i would fit them after the test then you don't have to worry about them being the cause of an iva failure.

Not required for the test & as said above best fitted afterwards. When you're ready I have some very nice little units for under a tenner!

Any more info on them Russbot?

They are mandatory in Canada and have been for a long time. You can use anything you want though; and i've used very cheap LED's that fit beside the headlights. They look great, and in the next century when my car is finished, they will look even better on the roads.

That'll be the wind powered ones then! I'm sure you'll be pleased with them!

Have to say I was a bit skeptical until I saw the samples, to test them you can just blow hard at the fan & they light up! There's a set definitely going on my next Furore! See if I can remove the "cloak of invisibility!"

That's exactly what I wanted to hear thanks, that way I can have a good think on what i want & where to fit them afterwards
