    Vehicle : Insignia

    Trim : Sri

    Engine : 140 Ecoflex S/S

    Year : 2013

    Default HIDS and MOT as of 04.02.12.

    Had my Siggy MOT'd yesterday and whilst it doesn't have HIDS fitted, I asked the tester what his take on HIDS was. To quote what he said and this is his interpretaion:

    "If a car comes in with factory fit Xenons, headlamp wash and levellers, then the wash and levellers will be tested and must work.

    If a car comes comes in with HIDS, then as long as the beam patterns are correct and not displaying overly blue light, then it's a pass".

    This is purely his reading of the new MOT standards but I think we'll find this will vary from garage to garage. Hmmm, might be getting my HIDS afterall .
