Ok what I was trying to say is its down to officer discretion.
The law says a lot of things, you can in reality fit anything to a car, but if its not seen and not useable a court would never stand it as a conviction, as its not against the law to own one, Plus if it cannot be seen or used how are we supposed to know its there?? Plus under PACE, we would need reasonable grounds to search for it, and if we don't know its there we don't have reasonable grounds.... intel would have to be good..I'm sure CPS would be looking for "Intentions" to get a conviction
Oh hell my mind is spinning... while we are at it what came first the chicken or the egg??? :lol:
If you look at e-bay there are loads for sale.

I saw a Ford Ka this morning (slightly chavved up), that had th side repeaters replaced with blue lights.
Now surely they're definately not road-legal?

Spoke to a fire engine owner at a recent show he has them on but is supposed to cover them up when on the road.
