[Stig182]

any pics matey??? hard to take out?

anyone know the legalities of the MOT with stripping out? i'm led to believe if it aint there, it aint gotta work? (seatbelts etc.)

 

[Christopher]

Yep.

Belts are only tested if they're present.

Nice strippage

 

[Pep]

its easy mate, pretty self explanatary when you do it, but hard to explain!
just need a set of torx bits and job done mate.

you're right about the MOT too.

did you fit the decat? is it on the std system?

Yeah mate i fitted the decat! Nope its got a magnex ss twin back box on it too!

 

[Pep]

ah right.
easy job to do? did you replace any fitting bits for it?

 

[172Ben]

Notice a difference it being stripped?

 

[Skinny]

Get all the plastics and hte belts out man, wont take more the a few hours to do it all. Will make a difference as there is still a fair wack of wieight there, espec. the seat belts and the bolts.

And yeah its really self explanatory taking it all out, so simple.

 

[AlexG]

Looks cool with the belts like that! A bit like a cage

 

[M8XY G]

ha ha belts will do for now but plans for a cage?

 

[jams]

Good improvement from standard!! As said is there any plans for a cage?

 

[Tucker]

Yep.

Belts are only tested if they're present.

Nice strippage

WRONG

if the car is registered as a four seater it must have four seatbelts and buckles

i know this personally because my car failed it's MOT about a month ago for that exact reason

f**king ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If its got no rear seats, it doesn't need rear seatbelts. You're WRONG.

 

[Andyman]

No reason for the lad to lie is there?? Probably depends where you go for it testing ...


Thats a nice strip. Anymore and its for the brave lol

 

[Fletcher]

^^^That's how i understand it too.

 

[drhowser]

there are an awfull lot of stripped clios that must be running about with no mot if that is the case then... i think there might be a couple more details in there somewhere..

 

[Jay Payne]

Mine passed fine with nothing inside it. Just two buckets and harness'

 

[172Ben]

if it has not seats, they dont need to be tested.

 

[Tucker]

it must depend on how the tester is feeling that day

i had to go home and put the buckles back in and pay for a retest
