Anyone have a fix to the rear markers without drilling holes in the fender? Do they care if Wires are sshowing or not? And for the front if i understand correctly i just need reflectors???

How long do you have to fix the issues if you fail?

I'm pretty sure it's 14 days from the initial inspection, the car needs to be re-inspected and all failing issues must be replaced or repaired. Once an OPI is done on a car, a copy of the inspection is sent to the ministry of transportation. You cannot take it somewhere else to have it re inspected.
I am a mechanic and do these inspections daily, make sure everything inside and out work (seatbelts, lights, HVAC, seats, door handles). Make sure all your glass has an AS-1, or AS-2 type certification ( visible in the really small writing in the corner of window), have at least 5mm+ tire tread, at least 5mm or more of brake lining, no major leaks, front end good and tight, non cracked windshield, and no loose or broken body panels/parts.
Slapping a pair of sticky reflectors on the rear quarters behind the rear wheels isn't a bad idea either, after the inspection you can just pull them off easy peasy.
Depending on what year your car is, anything after 1991 is required to have a high mount brake light and daytime running lights.
Hopefully this helps you out and makes you a little better prepared for your OPI.

^ thanks for the info, that was very informative! I must ask why just anything newer than 91? Did something change in cars for 92?
