   Just out of interest... was thinking my car might fail MOT as you can hardly see the reflectors in the rear lights, and I know the reflectors have to be red...
   
   Would it pass if I stuck on two red reflectors to the back of the car before the MOT?
   
   If so where would I position them?

   stick them next to the lights on the boot. Then it's dead easy to remove with a hairdryer.

   just put brighter bulbs on?
   
   also: if you have a bit of sticky crap left after you remove the reflectors, it's also dead easy to remove with some WD40

   no idea really, I just know there are brighter ones... Probably more wattage or something.

   Maybe these they seem extra bright.
