I've seen it all now! I was wondering how the bride would get in/out the carrier with her Pavlova frock Ron

she must have been up to her eyes in it by the time she got back out again hahahha. the lights you have fitted i take it they are magnetic ones, are these mandatory for road use ? i have been pondering on this for some time, it would make it safer for other road users so they know where your going.... I had been asked by an old chap if my carrier was ready in time before he die's could i transport him to his funeral on the engine cover with a union jack draped over...... it brought a lump to my throat i didnt have the heart to say it wont be done that soon mate....

Yes the modern road lights are on a light bar which is on quick release. I have a small panel in the front which i can cover up.
Yes if you want to stay within the law in the UK you will need modern lights.
However in the sticks I know guys that don't bother. But as I live near London and have taken part in main events in the centre of town it's a must.
