MOT test ?

[bloodhunter]

i need a question answering if possible please.

Is it a requirement to have a rear fog lamp fitted to a 2004 import vehicle that does not have one in the country of origin.

Thanks.

**EDIT**

According to section 1.3 of the mot testers manual it is a requirement of vehicles to have one from 1980

The reason I ask is that I've just bought a jap import fresh from a dealer with an MOT and there is no rear fog lamp fitted and no switch for it either.

Ok I've discovered it has a working rear fog lamp on the drivers side but no tell tale lamp. When I operate the front fog lamps the rear illuminates at the same time but no tell tale for the front ones either. I can see where the tell tale is but I'm not sure if the bulb might have gone assuming it is a bulb and some kind of LED panel.
