    Hey guys. So I read that I need to empty my boot for NCT.

    Does the same apply to the glovebox?

    I wouldn't say so. Empyting the boot is so that they can easily check the spare tyre, and maybe look for chassis corrosion.

    Same as, but I only got it recently.

    If I take it out for the NCT is it alright if all the wiring is left in the boot and not hidden away?

    No, you don't need to empty it.

    That's a new category of mandatory fail on grounds of public convenience ( or if I was king it would be).

    I always emptied the boot and glove-box; actually used empty the car of everything non-essential for the NCT. I remember the last one I had on my auld car was in early January this year & I'd brought along some miniature heros for myself to bunch on en route, but didn't eat them. They weren't touched by the tester either.

    I wouldn't have minded if he did eat them,

    Don't know about the nct but it's 200 for a doe (commercial) have not bothered myself as I like to keep things straight for my own good and interested in keeping my vehicles 100% throughout. If I took half the care of myself lol :)

    I'd be really quite annoyed if I found out a tester had been looking in my glovebox to be honest.
