Quad lights cant pass MOT

so i went to the local bike shop to ask em about my new quad lights and fitting them to my runner 125vx
they said its a tricky job to fit em, and they wont be bright and that they won't pass an MOT. i swear thats the first time ive heard this?

Re: Quad lights can't pass MOT

they wont pass moy but... they arnt tricky to fit..... and they are just as bright if not brighter then the standard light..... even tho standard lights u can adjust them so i duno how bright they go but with my quad lights on a few cars was telling me they are to bright lol

 

is there a way i can fit them so i can take em off when MOT comes
cos apparently you gotta solder them :wtf: and thnx for the info skater

 

Quad lights are brighter imo.
mine are anyway.

They won't pass mot.

Do what i did.
I wired the quad lights into a big black splitter box.
Then ran them off using the red clipclamp things lol.
So i can unwire them. And then plug my standard ones back in.

In fact i can plug my standard ones in still

*i'll get a pic*

 

i see.. sounds a bit confusing
i dun have a clue about the headlight unit
u got msn mate?

 

i dont understand.... mine fitted piss easy and i could take them of and re fit standard lights in a matter of 2 mins.... but yeh i think they are brighter as well, good luck with them

or....

just fit them after the m.o.t?

 

thnx im looking to do it this week or next
ciarans helped me with some diagrams
im still confused about the black splitter box
and where i get this from...

 

no they wont pass an mot because its somthing to do the straightness of the beam

 

Beam needs to be aimed to the left etc, and all sorts of daft angles.

 

there easy enough to do on a runner you have a brown wire and a purple wire cna remeber which is high or low beam jsut try and error, but all i did was connect 1 wire from each bulb to the black which is earth then the two big buld to the high beam once i worked out what one it is from my original headlights, then connect the other two lives from the smaller bulbs to the low beam that way you have high beam, low beam and flash which is all lights on, hope this helps.....
