That's the problem we all face. It won't automatically be road legal. An MoT certificate is a roadworthiness certificate, not a certificate of RVC & U compliance.

I agree that some of this seems a bit silly but that's the way it is. Let's face it, there are plenty of cars out there with poorly aligned halogen lamps that are filthy dirty yet this is considered acceptable.

The best way to ensure that you comply with the law is to retrofit the OEM HID equipment and all required ancillaries.
