   30 quid fine and you will be told to remove them.
   
   Sometimes you have to prove you have removed them with 7 days of been pulled some times its just a on the spot fine

   Just find a place that has a life time guarentee. And will replace them free as charged. Just dont say police ripped them off just say they come off.
