Hi all,
I've just had my 11 plate Evo fail an MOT due to the MTEC DRL's, MTEC sidelights and Nightbreaker dipped beams being "incorrect" colour.

The test centre passed my car last year with the same bulbs in so I think this year I've been unlucky in receiving a fussy tester
I remember reading previous threads of people buying these bulbs so was wondering if anyone else has been failed whilst having them installed.
Also, on the advisory it states my rear tires are perished. There's small cracks all over so I'm wondering if these genuinly need replacing. (see images)

Also the exhaust has been classed as deteriorated. There's flaking rust but nothing major. Wondering if you chaps deem this as needing a new exhaust. If so I'll get a half decent one. Maybe Novitec :slayer:

I just think that this test centre is taking me for a run. Or their tester is way too picky. The previous year they tested my front tyres as having 6mm tread depth at the lowest point. This year they've marked it as 7mm lowest depth Am I going mad in thinking the depth should be DECREASING over age, or is that too logical
