Anyone know if spot or driving lights comply with the beam pattern rules for MOT if used as headlights ?
Thanks

When you say using a spot light as a headlight, do you mean to come on with the high beams? or to be there for use as the dipped beam headlight?

Yeah, No. Not as a main headlight (dipped beam) Beam pattern will be completely wrong even if you angle them down. Best get some proper headlights in there, 5" rounds aren't hard to find. Nothing stopping you using them as main beams as long as they are correctly positioned and paired.
PS, some round headlights (BA type 1) are checked for aim on the main beam setting. MoT manual section 1.8 gives all the details and diagrams.

To get a standard A40 this low, you'd have to dig a hole to put it in |
