Awesome build Rosco, I've been quietly following for a while now!
I'm also running 5 3/4" SVC headlights - which bulbs did you buy to replace the stock ones? Little annoyed to learn they won't pass, they were sold as IVA friendly...

Well got up this morning about 4:45 as I couldn't sleep, walked the dog and got the bonnet on etc, 6am came and my Dad turned up with the trailer, got it loaded up, I had a car cover so put this on as it was raining
Set off and the cover was blowing everywhere, so took it back off, it wasn't raining to hard Got to the test station, unloaded the car and parked up, 8:30 the roller door went up and he got started, checked all the projections to start with, said the bottom of the headlight bracket wasn't rounded enough Then looked over the brakes, happy with the balance bar being lock wired, but not happy with the rubber tube from the brake fluid pot to the cylinders, he asked if I had a recipt, but I couldn't find it, Seat belts, all good, said they were fine but I could remove the spacers lifting them up, (the spacers were only for IVA anyway) he said the belts would be ok resting on the seat as the hole was trimmed, Had a good look around the car, then checked the reverse gear, but the way I had wiried it, the prime switch put the light on then the engage switch reverses the car, but he said no good as you could leave the light on Also the digi dash buttons needed locking as they hide the speedo when in a menu Checked the speedo, all fine, Emissions were spot on Then he went and weighed it and try the brake balance I think 510kg and brakes good, Onto the ramp, had a look underneath, checked lock to lock, The headlights, said they were spot on Just the brake test and noise left Tested the brakes but said he has to work the figures out Outside for the noise test, I was pooing it by this point, 97db so just under Then he said if you want to go to your car and try n sort those 4 bits out Well me and my dad, you would of thought we were going to miss the grid at the F1 Edge trim on the headlight brackets I set about the wiring, re wired the reverse light so it was correct, and unwired the dash buttons Just the brake pipe to sort, I rang rally design where it was from, them emailed me the spec sheet, He came over and checked everything and said you've Passed Went and did the paperwork and job done So happy! I said I wouldn't have minded a fail but when I was there I didn't want to have to do a re test So just need to fill my reg forms out now!
