I seriously doubt it mate! For what its worth, just pick up some from a scrappie and swap them for the mot rather than taking the chance :thumbsup:

I doubt they would, simply because there is no reflector on them, if on the other hand you can shine a light on them and the reflector clearly shows, and the light coming out of the tint is bright enough - which i doubt it will be, then it will pass.

you could stick sum reflectors on the bumper for the mot and it would probably pass if the light shines through the lens well enough

As others have said it will fail because it has no reflectors, if it passes then the MOT man hasn't done his job properly. Just keep a standard set for MOT days, thats what i do with my smoked ones.
