UK MOT rules now allow approved LED replacement bulbs
Original: new uk mot led bulb requirements
The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency has clarified that approved LED replacement bulbs can pass the MOT when fitted in compatible halogen headlamps. Motorists and garages had long faced uncertainty, as aftermarket LED bulbs in halogen units typically failed the test. The change confirms which conversions are acceptable and is being discussed among drivers and workshops checking whether their vehicles now comply.
Why now: Drivers and garages are reacting to updated official guidance on whether LED headlight bulbs can pass the MOT.
