After seeing the VC's Spec C without a spoiler I eventually removed mine off my bug eye. I prefer it without.

I get some looks off other scoob owners.

Just a point, if you remove a spoiler which contains a brake light, is there a legal requirement to fit a new brake light centrally in the rear window ?

Must all cars over a certain age have a central brake light ??

Just done a quick search, and it seems that any vehicle manufactured after 1998 must have a central brake light fitted at a level higher than the two corner mounted brake lights.

Of course, it could be that its not be a legal requirement to keep the central brake light, just that manufacturers are required to fit them from new ?

Just wondering

Gareth
