LED lights - SVA OK?
This little numberplate light looks really neat, but is it ok for SVA?

If I understand 'fit for purpose' correctly, it has basically got to light up the numberplate. E marking doesn't seem to be required
then?

mot states that it should be white. Any compulasy lights must be the correct colour, but additional lights do not come into it e.g. boy racer blue
washer jets.

Aha - so as these led's are actually white in colour they should be ok

Number plate lights should give "adequate" illumination, so it’s up to the tester (if the light is not "E" marked) to say if
he thinks its adequate or not.
Careful about bolt or screw heads with less than 2.5 mm rads.

They test it in daylight without a plate fitted. If it shines and it's not got sharp edges it passes.

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