Default 02 blob eyes - help needed!!!!

Hi guys and girls. In desperate need of your help.

Put the scoob in for MOT, and she only failed on the lights.

Previous owner put bug eyes on, and have mucked around with the electrics so much nothing works as it should do.

need to get the car through its MOT, but not sure what is best to do. Has been suggested I put blob eyes on and hope the electrics can be sorted. HELP!!!!

Thanks

Sarah

Can you put some pics of your car up to help explain the issue? Your post is unclear.

i bet he means morrettes?

as above, a decent auto electrican can fix this, i know a very good guy just round the corner to you, who COULD do the job...pm me if you need the details. hes a master tech at fords, but also does private work specialising in jap cars, and hes an mot tester too.
