If you decide to ditch the heater but still want the cooling benifits run the pipes to another radiator ..........If youve got room of course.

what about reverse lights? Are they a "must" for an MOT? I have fitted BMW mini rear clusters to my round nose, they don't have reverse lights built in but do have fog lights! Speedster turbo under construction |

No if you dont have them, they arnt a failure. I dont have one as my mini has mk1 back lights (fitted adapter plates in there). Previous Engine: 1040cc Morespeed engine, 1275 turbo head T2 Turbo Mirage Manifolds Megajolt

reverse light's are not part of the mot they are the only light's that if fitted and dont work that will not cause a fail other than spots Edited by billydude on 10th Jun, 2004. |

Am still thinking about rotating the heater matrix 180 degrees so that I have a bit more clearance for the pedals. I flipped my matrix definatly get's the pipe's out of the way

My Mk2 has the heater pipes on the left side, loads more room by the pedals than on my old MK4 car.
