I dislike what there saying about lining up with eu. I'd hate to have tuv like Germany. Or the strictness on mods like Scandinavia.

If cars are manufacture with OEM HID's then they must have Self levelling and headlamp washers to get type approval, not sure of the MOT implications when testing but I would presume that they must work

See link below, especially point No2.2

http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety/drs/hidheadlamps

Under the Road Traffic Act 1988 it is an offence to supply, fit or use vehicle parts which are not legal.

Pleae dont think I am being argumentative, I have just been following the rules that are laid out by the DOT.

However new vehicles have HID headlamps. This is because they comply to European type approval Regulations. The UK cannot refuse to register a vehicle with a European type approval. These are to ECE Regulation 98 (for the HID headlamps which are tested on a rig in a laboratory) and ECE Regulation 48 (Lighting Installation on the vehicle).

See in above not all cars conform to the rulings it depends on the reg
Some are tested in a lab on a rig
Some are tested fitted to a car

Also with hid lamps it says it must have washers and self level here's a thing yes the is has washers bit no self level but mot rules state if it's not their you can't fail it..ie if you have a frayed seat belt tuck it away and fold the seat up then we can't test it so it's a pass..
Also construction and use differs from the mot..something which could get you fined might pass a mot..
