Got my MOT due soon. Just double checking if these will pass:
removing my rear LED Hella's (due to no reflectors and poor fog)
Will LED sidelight's pass (W5W)
What about BMC CDA (the manuf. states for off road use only but is that until you put a breather on it?)
LED side indicators (flash yellow)
Cheers

Yep they should all pass. I think the breather filter is a mild grey area but don't quote me.
I took mine to a garage which would definitely had said something about mine, but they didn't.

I wouldn't worry about swapping before hand. That's just hassle. If they do randomly happen to say something you can just pop it on then.

You saying that, they do free retakes, so if it does fail and they dont tell me, i'll put it in then get it retaken. Just one other thing. Has any1 had problems with HID's in reflector headlamps, or can they be aligned just as well as standard bulbs.

Youll have no problem with any of that. Air filters for one arent tested lol and as long as the indicator lights orange/yellow when its supposed to, and its bright enough, itll pass.
As for HIDs, it really depends on who is testing it. Some garages get the arse as they say 'it cant be levelled' but it really depends on how picky the tester is.
