hi guys, got the car back from the garage with the mot failure list ---rear seatbelt not retracting, had to show him by lifting the rear blind a bit and up went the belt,,no fog light obvious,,both headlights aiming to high which i new after re-placing both xenons with a struggle,[hands to big] o/side repeater wrong colour [ i have clear on both sides] both front tyres worn on inner camber time to do some searching -245/35/19.. glad both rear ok 275/30/19....

with side lights on, the rear fogs act as side lights aswell as brakes when applied, i , just noticed today stabilising bracket on sard induction split were attached to body, all in time just working my way around it not a lot of probs just want to keep on top of it..

called up to to glossop and oldham saturday they seem like good guys.. auto-serve wasnt keen on cutting into my rear bumper, at least they were honest,, a garage i called to last week said he will have a look but it will be trial and error didnt really fancy that.. i will have to find the smallest fog light i can and make do its in for mot thursday not sure how it passed without fog on last year once again cheers for the help..

Thanks chaps for the quick replys,,chatsworth was the one i had seen but forgot where i had seen it.. i will have a ride out on saturday morning to both garages and see what they can do for me
