I have been in touch with http://www.upauto.co.uk. and they state their conversions won't pass an MOT test. Would anyone on this board still fit them? Considering 90% of us have will have a catless car.
I have looked at http://www.scoobymania.co.uk. and they appear to look better, but will they pass a MOT test?

They might just be covering their backs saying that, in case people come back and say 'it did not pass the mot, I want my money back'

Hi Markus, I have seen your twin conversion, Do your lights have any BS CE or EU compliance markings on them?

Marcus is in the states at the momment!!!
He has Morette's which I believe will pass an MOT but the UP auto ones won't (I'am lead to believe). A friend had a set last year. He fitted them took the car to a garage to check the beam and they couldn't set the beam pattern up correctly Hence it won't pass an MOT.
He sent them back as tey nevertold him they weren't legal!!!

If anyone knows different please let me know as I quite fancy the UP ones

Yep "Zorst" fitted OK Though it was only on there a month or so. I had a Scooby Sport downpipe and mid fitted after it came up a few days later!!!
I sold yours on to Velryba (at cost) and he's still got a smile on his face every time I see him.
