Are the rules in the UK also in such a way that you have to have the automatic headlight height system? Vehicles equipped with High Intensity Discharge (HID) or LED dipped beam headlamps may be fitted with headlamp washers and a suspension or headlamp self levelling system . Where such systems are ...

Its a hot topic of controversy on HIDs and washers Legally, washers only have to be fitted if the car has HIDs from new MOT regulations state that if fitted washer systems must work, but if not fitted, reasonable doubt must be followed therefore they realistically cannot fail you.
