Wait for it....

Some have passed, some havent. Seems to depend on tester and station.

We fitted those and after checking with the SVA inspector, were told that they would not pass SVA. Not only do they have the wrong beam pattern but they also have the wrong lense markings. The light output isn't much good either. I've heard of people passing SVA with these lights fitted but I reckon it's an urban myth.

We eventually returned the small headlights for a refund and bought some from SVC. Superb quality products and Steve's a top bloke too.

Cheers Phil,

We sell these at sVc now - see comments on our web pages:

RACING HEADLIGHTS - NEW
Black or Chrome
These small headlights are for Off Road & Racing Use Only. Whilst they are "E" marked, they are not Fully Road Legal for cars, in fact the importer suggests the buyer checks to ensure they are Road Legal even for motor cycles!
The outside diameter of the rim is only 108mm and they weigh approx 620 grams each, complete with bulbs and wiring. Fitted with H4 Main Beam and Dip bulb and a side light.
These do not comply with the regulations of the 750 Motor Club Race series as they insist on 5 3/4" lights."

Regards
Steve @ sVc - "looking after my customers and my product liability insurance !"
