supradibbs Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I currently have no side indicators at all just the front facelift ones in the bumper currently fitting a genuine do luck front and it gives you the option to fit these i.e marked where to cut. Do you think it will ruin the look off the bumper with these fitted Anyone have pics of a do luck front with these, cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 IMHO, less is more. No no to the side markers. I prefer a cleaner smooth look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Isn't it a legal requirement to have repeaters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelfill Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 There is a legal requirement to have indicators visible from the side of the vehicle. The facelift indicators fulfil this requirement on the stock bumper (the side markers on facelift are not indicators) I suspect that on the Late model DoLuck they will also satisfy the legal requirements.

Yes it is i think but i think it depends on the year I have had two MR2's a few years back, my first one, the dealer i bought it from drilled holes in the wing for the indicators and said to me you have to have them on otherwise it will not pass a M.O.T. Then when i wrapped it round a lampost lol i bought another one and that one had no indicators, the dealer left it standerd and it passed M.O.T's no problem. I think it looks alot better without them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 If you can find a friendly MOT guy I'd go without (for looks), if not facelifts are the most elegant way of doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 How about going with the Gandor mirrors which incorporate the side repeaters? Pricey but nice looking and over comes the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of the MOT (which isn't the problem), if he gets the wrong cop on the wrong day.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkR Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I didn't put them on my do-luck front, which does look better but doen't pass MOT. For the MOT I stick some on and then remove after. The indicators have to be visible from inline with the rear of the car and 1 metre outwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
