Default MOT testers or experts

Selling a car it needs a mot,

it has a middle brake light in the boot a long strip about 10 inches long, but the end inch of it is cracked and hanging off, mercedes are on back order so if i use black tape to cover up the crack will it pass ?

it still fully works just will be 2 inches shorter ?

If you taped it up so that the light doesnt shine through the tape that will also be ok.If its not on a car they cant fail it.
