Top, top work, thanking you. I was under the impression these were an NLA special but they're on that site which I somehow hadn't come across before. My washer pipes keep popping off the nozzles as well so will buy a length of that too.

Thought I updated this thread but clearly not. Maybe a bit more to this bloody clip than initially thought, got this back from Renomotive- best bet would be trying to get someone to 3D print something as the clip is not designed to be pulled out from the face. Pretty much single use...

Cheers I'll try the screw first on the other side. The kit mentioned further back actually had better clips that were an appropriate size so I'll stick the same in that side.

Fear not, it'll be the same on the passenger side so I can get more practice at destroying these.

Hey, it's the first time I've done the pollen filter myself in almost 12 years of ownership...

As per the arrow on the top of the housing. :sneaky:

Oh and FWIW, the old pollen filter was absolutely rank so the annoyance was worthwhile. 🥳

Yeah, this must have been the worst pop rivets ever fitted to one of these. There's no way it was popping out. Levered it from all angles then just had to destroy it with a sharp screwdriver. Still needed a good pull with pliers to get the centre bit out, pain in the c**t. Now replaced with...

That's nonsense and impractical. My hairdryer would definitely work better.

Well mine are somehow fucked because it rounded before turning much at all. One was already rounded by someone else so I took care with this one and the material was so soft.

Ok thanks I'll try under the trim and good shout on that kit danke. I don't know if it's a Clio/French thing but I do not have this sort of nonsense problem on any other cars with plastic rivets. 😵‍💫

Are you talking to the point of 'that's away to break' hard? Because I had been trying that.

Not sure what on earth is going on here or how much of a moron I'm being- how do you remove these rivets? They have a philips head that rounded before they'd turn much and they don't want to pop up at all.

I cut off about 1/4" and it is better cheers although it will still pop off just not as easily and the hose is on the tight side which won't help.

My driver's side tubing keeps popping off the nozzle (this is surprisingly infuriating) and I think the rubber is a bit too slack. Can anyone recommend a source for replacement rubber tubing that works well to save me forking out a relative fortune on this Renault stuff please?-...
