Why indeed, but would fail an MOT as a third of the brake light is not visible/operational..... well I'd of failed it anyway, just cause its tacky :shake:

Is the 3rd light part of the MOT though?

I thought the only requirement was two brake lights?

A bit like if your car has Airbags but they don't work, thats not a MOT fail.

Tacky as hell, seen loads of boy racers with these... :(

If you have one, it has to work. Not sure about the brightness..

All and any brake lights fitted must work.
Linear brake lights such as the boot one or any consisting of seperate lamps must have at least more than a third working, I'd guess the sticker covers more than a third... so I would of failed it.

I'm out of the game now, so things may have moved on, in fact they have with the MOT now PC based, which would have been a pleasure in my time.
I can remember having to write MOT tickets on obvoius ringers because there was no reasonable reason to fail or not give the ticket :evil:
