No airbag..... MOT fail??

[kevo66]

Im guessing not as everyone replaces their wheels???

Dont think it is an MOT requirment to have a Airbag but it may depend on the age of the car and if the car has had an airbag and has the equipment for an airbag etc.

 

[kevo66]

Hmm...... I want a new wheel see

 

[Steve 182]

Have you googled it?

 

[kevo66]

No mate, was hoping one of our learned members would assist!!

I have just had a look on a MOT website an it says "[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]There are no checks at all on airbags as part of the MOT Test."

See http://www.motester.co.uk/mot-qanda2.html

Already got! Why?

I would have thought as long as the air bag light isnt on the car wont fail.

Safety. Wouldnt want to be wearing a seatbelt in a crash with an aftermarket wheel imo.

Anyway, not your friend! Just seen the your wheels for sale thread on 197.net

airbags dnt come in 2 the test they can only advise bout the light being on,
so you be ok m8!

 

[LeeP86]

im a tester and as mklee86 says the airbag is not part of the test, even if the light is on its not a fail.
