The minimum clearance is 57cm from the ground to the mid-point of your headlights, you should consider and measure accordingly while raising your car. Good luck on the V.I.

If I could find another Y bracket off a civic, then I can mount it in the middle again. Quote:

what's back behind all those openings? surely there's something you can mount something to.

i got 3 vi tickets within one yr in richmond. they wrote me a ticket that said i have to go take it to the ok tires on minoru for inspection. after talking to my friend who is a lawyer, he said i don't have to go to the shop the cops told you to go to for inspection. they have no rights to tell you where to go. they do that cause they just wanna be an ass cause they are usually more strict.

Post from Soundy on another thread regarding height: Quote:

Your headlights also cannot be below or above a certain height... don't know what that is off the top of my head, but you should be able to find it in the Motor Vehicle Act Regulations. | ------------------------------------------------------
The MVA states:
(2) The headlamps must be mounted at a height of not less than 56 cm and not more than 1.37 m. Motor Vehicle Act Regulations
Sucks that you got VI'd.
Have seen an increase in Richmond RCMP stopping cars though... kind of makes me think twice when i try to make the light.

is there any other criteria that might warrant a VI other than:
headlights between 56cm - 137cm in height from pavement
tires not rubbing at lock to lock
HID
Exhaust
lowest part of body work not lower than lowest part of rim (does this include mudflaps?)
we should have a sticky on this..

^ cracked windshield over a certain length, etc. isn't there an MVA section for a VI?
looking at the VI TypeRNammer posted up you've got:
Driver/Documents
Brakes
Coupling Devices
Exhaust
Body/Frame
Fuel System
Lights
Load Security
Steering
Suspension
Tires
Wheels/Rims
Wipers
Other

Hahaha!! Only in Richmond.
No seriously...its true. I know people who are VPD, Surrey and Langley RCMP.
Other detachments don't care about VI's. Just don't drive like a dick.

Richmond has always had this reputation, and I don't think that will change. Nam, I'm with ya man we both in the same boat, in my other thread in the police forum I'm trying to gather as much info as possible myself....

alot of the richmond shops onwere who do VI hate the rmd rcmp cause they hate inspecting cars. they also said they just pull you over and give you a VI notice when they feel like it. they should go take a course and learn the basic about cars before they start pulling ppl over and give stupid tickets
