   as long as all the wiring is removed and der is no sign of the brake light not being der in the first place then it wil not fail the mot mate,
   just make sure u remove everything thats the light unit to all the wires that go throught the boot and then ur be fine mate!!

   sometimes you can actually get stoped if you tint your rear window and leave it in as it reflects off the rear window tint and lights the inside of the car up red, i got stoped for it in my vtr a few years ago
