Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Does a broken foglight = Failed NCT?

    My NCT is up next month and today I just noticed that the glass cover on one of the front fog-lights has had a misfortunate coming together with a stone. The light itself still works but the glass is cracked and has a small hole in it. Would the car fail the NCT on this?

    The OH did hers on Saturday

    Back driver side indicator bulb was gone. As long as she represents within a month with the bulb replaced she'll get her cert. Doesn't have to pay a re-test fee either

    Is it the same for fog lights?

    cover the lens completely with tape, as long as there's no visible crack or jagged edge you;ll be ok.

    I think I'll just get a new one, surely it can't cost too much for just the glass casing.

    This post is accurate, same goes for anything that leaks. Cover it with some type of tape and it passes as long as it covers the leak/crack.
