Integrated Rear Lights Specification Example for Racing Teams: Standard Replacement
Integrated Rear Lights Specification Example for Racing Teams: Standard Replacement
This is a worked specification for integrated rear lights in a standard replacement programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The standard replacement version exists because the duty cycle on racing teams is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a supplier who changed material without saying so.
Example specification
| Item | Integrated Rear Lights |
|---|---|
| Application | Racing Teams |
| Version | Standard Replacement |
| Base material | Stainless Steel |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Finish | anodised |
| MOQ | 500 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 5 days per revision |
| Compliance | ECE R90 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Stainless Steel, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.
Processes involved
- assembly line testing
- CNC machining
- ultrasonic cleaning
- cold forging
- electroplating
- powder coating
Where this example applies
Programmes that run standard replacement most often specify this build for racing teams. Related applications include aftermarket retail, municipal fleets, three-wheelers, passenger cars, racing teams.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 4.0 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ECE R90 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ECE R90-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 500 pieces per line.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
