i dont know what the law is on side repeaters. ive got a spare set of orange ones anyway for the MOT but when i took it for the test the mechanic said..'if it doesnt have them then i cant fail it..if you had them and the bulbs were gone it would mean a fail'

Vehicles first used on or after 1 April 1986


These must be fitted with one side repeater indicator on each side. Instead of a separate lamp, the side repeater might be part of the front direction indicator if it includes a wraparound lens.


Acceptable wrapround lens marking


Lamps incorporating a side repeater are marked either with an 'E' mark in a circle or an 'e' mark in a rectangle above which is a number 5. Some vehicles are fitted with a wraparound lens with no European approval markings. These can be tested by standing approximately 1000mm to the side of the vehicles rear bumper with indicator on. If amber light can be seen coming through the front lens (not a reflection) this is acceptable.
