Relocated them or just got rid?

Whats the law on side repeaters anyway?
He just got rid of them. The law is you have to have them, won't pass without unless you know someone in the business.

I was under the impression (for the side repeaters) that they don't have to be thier unless from a side view, the front indicators cannot be seen flashing. On the polo, they wrap around which makes them visible hence the removal...

Could be wrong though!

I've never read up on the law, but always assumed that you ahve to have an indicator bulb on the front rear and all sides of your car. If someone could clarify though.....

Yep u defo need repeaters and on long wheel base cars like the long wheel base phantom u need one in the middle of the side skirt as its so long lol!

Erm i rekon ariel and roof rails would suit ur top half out and your rear recess if u can find some decent mounting lights! erm its quite hard to think actually!

Oh and wing mirror plastics like the mount u can colour code, thats a neat trick on black motors!

Have ur rear towin cut out moulded in so losing the cut out will finish ur rear off!
