The circuit is quite literally a black box so without ripping it apart it's difficult to say..if having the DRLs flash did fail the MOT then having them dim on...

I spoke to my local MOT tester today to check whether these lights would fail the MOT.

Had no intention of modifying our new pride and joy, but having seen the results on Dave's TF are now sorely tempted! Great write up.

This How To details the difficult bits of installing LED halos into my headlights to provide Daytime Running Lights.

I've got an LE500..one of the later ones (493) and they are still a pain...They emit a continuous shriek after washing and after heavy rain...in the dry they work fine..Haven't yet worked out what to do about them. They do dry out..eventually! I guess only driving in dry and sunny weather is the onl...

Spent a quick half hour touching up the paint chips on my Raven Black bodywork..why on earth did they use white undercoat on a black car...ggrrhh!..

Now only? a wash, polish and wax to be ready for the Bromley Pageant of Motoring next Sunday..think I'll leave that til later in the week...

15th is good for me......

How about doing it at the Bromley Pageant of Motoring on 8th?

Already sold...sorry...

My (TF LE500) does that...locks once 20mph is reached...and unlocks once the ignition is turned off...bit of a pain when trying to let Amanda out while the engine is still running though!
