| MD Inspection checklist I need to get a truck I bought inspected and need to see the MD inspection checklist so I can have most of the problems fixed before I take it to get inspected. Anyone know where I can get one of these? |

| You probably aready found this reference, but at least it's a list of what will be inspected... Vehicle Safety Inspection If you want an actual copy of the inspection certificate, you might want to go to an authorized inspection station and see if they can help you out. Good luck!

| No, I couldn't even find that and searched for a while. That answers some of my questions but doesn't give details. |

| Do your best to address what you can find and get it inspected. If it fails, you now have a working list of things wrong. Fix them, get it inspected again, this time with hopefully no defects.

| Never underestimate the mean spiritedness of some folks. I had one guy, after telling him I would be fixing whatever he found, get all spiteful. Told me my manual transmission car needed to have a placard indicating the shift pattern, or as the checklist said,a "shift indicator". Also insisted the door was "too hard to open". Wasnt bad, just harder than you would expect, still worked perfectly, you just had to apply say 10lbs of force upwards, not 7lbs. When I asked him why that mattered, he said "If a police officer neds to open the door".
