What should you do before any modification is carried out on your vehicle?

Before making any modifications or changes to vehicles in New Zealand, you must ensure that these modifications or changes are safe and compliant with traffic regulations. The correct procedure is to have a qualified safety inspector examine the vehicle (Option 2). This step is crucial because only through the inspection by a qualified inspector can you ensure that the modified vehicle continues to meet all safety and environmental standards in New Zealand. A legitimate inspection not only protects the safety of the vehicle owner but also safeguards the safety of other road users.
