About vehicle inspection

Hello, I wish everyone a nice weekend. Since I haven't been to the inspection station for a long time and they keep annoying people with some new invention, I'd like to get information about the current situation. What points should I pay particular attention to? - Also, my car doesn't have a tire repair kit; it came to me like that from the previous owner, but if I've got the original tire compressor, is the lack of a spare a problem? - In my car, when I don't turn on the daytime running lights or the normal headlights, the fog lights are on; does this pose a problem? - My windows have number 2 tint; does this still count as a minor defect? If there's an experienced friend who's visited the inspection station recently, I'd like to hear their thoughts and advice.

Mate, I just went to the Kurtköy inspection station yesterday. Compared to my previous experiences, I found them very indifferent. They didn't check the expiry date on the fire extinguisher, my tire sizes aren't original and I have spacers fitted, they didn't even check that. I can't give a clear answer to their questions, I don't have any knowledge on those topics, but regardless of the window tint percentage, it passes as a minor defect.

Hi, I got flagged for a non-original headlight. Photon Ultimate series, the white one. I only got away with it because it was similar to the original. The funny thing is my car has a visor on the rear window, and a full set of tower braces, and they didn't note any of that. They pay close attention to headlights.

I was going to install Photon too, I didn't install it thinking I'd do it after the inspection, off topic but are you happy with it, mate, does it cause any issue at the inspection?

I'm satisfied. The original headlight bulbs fall short at night. But as I said, it could cause an issue at inspection. There were people saying that especially if you turn on the high beams and they see the white light, they write you a ticket. I haven't gone through inspection yet with this.
