Is headlining needed for MOT ??

My D2 is going in tomorrow and currently the headlining is out due to some 'repairs'....but the thought just crossed my mind on if it is needed for the MOT

any thoughts?

Cheers

I doubt it as it not an integral part of the vehicle movement or chassis. As long no internal lights or electrical equipment involved in the headliner dangling in vision of a driver view outwards of the vehicle. If it was the case a lot Defenders Commercials and CWS would off the road by now.

Hi, many years ago Datsun cherry cars didn't come with any interia lining, so i would imagine it won't count. Someone on here will no doubt know for certain. Hope it passes. Dave.

Thanks guys.......I'll tie up those loose cables

I cannot see it being in any way an MOT failure, But if in doubt why not call the MOT ctr and ask.

Cheers

No done mot before without headliner

I would say if they don't match your curtains your in trouble

Headlining is not a testable item, so no .....unless its sagging so bad and in front of the driver it obsures the drivers view of the road

That's a real issue if you have a Mitsubishi Delica!
