Hello readers,

I need some help figuring out some things for the Sagaris.

1. Is any of the glass DOT approved? Headlights, tail lights, side markers, windshield, door glass, any glass?

2. Are the seat belts DOT stamped?

3. Are the brake lines DOT approved?

Assume they all are or it would fail the MOT surley.
All cars must go through some testing before there fit for the road.

DOT is the US standard. I doubt if any have been DOT tested. They would have gone through European E mark testing but that is not the same as DOT.

I second that, all the Hella lights used on the later TVR's are E marked not DOT, There is DOT Varients of the Hella lights which I could help you out with. As for the glass that is a litle more tricky and for the brake lines etc.... as well we had the same problems whilst designing the Marcos TSO but nothing is impossible!
