You CAN fill this form out yourself, as I did, however it may be the hardest to do so if you don't know much about cars.
If you don't know much about cars or lack tools, you can always get a (trustworthy) mechanic or friend to do this for you. They will check your car out and fill this out as they go along. Making sure that your car isn't too messed up to pass. At this point, if you take your car to a mechanic's shop, chances are that they will try and get you to do shaken for you!! After all, they want to get paid too right?! If you are brave enough, tell them you'll think about it, and in the mean time, get them to fill out the form and tell you what repairs your car might need. If it "needs" a lot of work, don't sweat it. Click here for what things you should do, and what things you can get away with not doing!
If you ARE familiar and comfortable with cars, then fill this form out yourself.
You can get this form from any mechanic, or even from the rikuunkyoku (陸運局) as I did, or here or here. There is no specific form that you must use, as long as you fill out a form titled tenken seibi kirokubo (点検整備記録簿)
