He said they weren't sure what they were so they errd on the side of caution. It doesn't really matter to me I do all my own spannering anyway so it's not like it will be going there for a service.

Forgot to mention, make sure you're getting the right hose. I purchased one advertised as fitting 98 on but the g13 and m13 have very different hose sets
Top is a g13 top hose and bottom is an m13 top hose.

Full credit to the supplier for correcting the issue rapidly and at their cost.

No worries really as the MOT is just a matter of the testers opinion :D

MOT says you need 2 and Construction and use states they can be no more than 1.5m above the ground and I "think" no nearer the ground than 380mm.

Nowhere does it say how big it has to be.....just that 50% must be able to be viewed from the rear.

My reflectors cost a whole £1

Can the Suzuki "S" be bought as a reflector as it'd look nice on that rear bumper B)
