Right a few things i need to double check on.

Do you need washer jets working? Id have guessed so but not sure??

And also exhaust system, will it pass without a backbox?? Few people have said it will, but just wana make sure...

washer jets have to be working

backbox it all depends where the exhaust system finishs. does the exhaust come to the edge of the car or have you just removed the backbox? to pass the MOT the system must be finish at the edge of the car so if you have just removed the backbox it will fail also it might fail on the noise level

so long as teh exhaust is in good health and it is not noisey you will pass. mine only has a tiny resonator in the middle and it past.

If it sounds quiet enough then just buy a shiny look exhaust end which is a rolled peice of stainless (foil might do!!) lol!!
Stick it on where the exhaust ends and just tell them that it's a very short exhaust cus shrunk due to large puddles or it's custom made and the only type ever to be made!!
Just foolin buddy!!
Hope you sort things out anyway and the car flies thru the MOT like Airwolf!
