The slam panel on my Ph1 has been removed for ITBs. But the bonnet alarm switch needs to go somewhere. Currently it is not even connected and everything seems to work ok and the alarm hasn’t gone off and the doors lock 🤷‍♂️ Shall I just leave it? Or where have other people related them?

So a a bit has happened with my Ph1 over the past 11 months since the last update! Got the OZ F1's refurbed and coated them in Gyeon Q2 Rim ceramic coating. Used this before and it is a really good coating and copes with brake dust and high temps well. Put some Nankang NS2R's on them, very good...

I see what you mean, it can either be powered by the head unit (E,G,K) or use a reversing bulb as a switched power. I’ll take another look with it all laid out on the floor but that has helped!

Actually just watched this and is a better video. Pretty certain it is a different unit and camera to mine but the wiring looks the same. Says the didn't need a reverse trigger as his head unit knows what gear it is in (the parking sensors come up on the screen so maybe it can work it out from...

After some advice on the wiring for the Reversing Camera I have bought for my new Apple Car Play Unit to fit to my E60. Camera is the right one for the unit but came with no instructions :rolleyes: I have contacted the shop but nothing yet. The only instructions are for the apple car play unit...

I have a pair of BB seats in my Ph1, only picture I have is this Think they are BB5 though? They are alright, bit narrow and I’m a skinny person. They do the job well and comfy enough.

Need to replace the rear N/S ABS sensor on my Ph1 172. Originally bought one off eBay, before they shipped they cancelled it as it didn't fit. The other I bought I was also told would fit and it doesn't. The garage it is currently at said they could get one but turns out that one is also...

Heard back from EFI and their response was: I have contacted CP Fuel Injectors about what they have available and they said they have a set of flow match 550cc injectors but offer two sizes - 48mm or 61mm which refers the length of the injector between the o-rings. At a guess and what I...

I was going to book with EFI, already dropped them a message about some other things I want to get sorted too. But seeing as these were from there and they often change injectors when mapping!

So it should just swap out the old one, plug the stand alone in and "work" so to say? I know I will need a base map to get it running before a mapping session

Will be replacing the injectors when I swap to ITB's as it seems most of the things I read when going for mapping is that people end up replacing injectors, so I thought to do it before I go for mapping! What are people using or suggest? Seen these...

I am getting a shopping list of parts together for an ITB build on my Ph1 172. Need to get a standalone ECU, was probably going with a GEN90. I was looking at EFI's website and came accross this https://efi-parts.co.uk/product/clio-172-ph1-immobiliser-removal-sirius-32-32n/ Then it got me...

I am biting the bullet and going down the route of fitting ITB's to my Ph1. Always wanted them and have the opportunity to do it. Because noise. Going to do it in stages, like get the rad and that sorted. Then fit the ITB's. Then when the cam belt needs replacing in a few years get some spicier...

Could be gear box oil as the N/S drive shaft is in the open end of the gear box so removing it and the gear box oil pours out. Have heard this can happen when jacking the car up too. As for engine mounts, I had a Vibratechnics solid mount in my old Ph1. It was ok, but the rest of the car was a...

I had no idea that the Hella ones were LHD only! Might have to be a gamble on the other branded ones by the looks of it!

Going to get my Ph1 resprayed in the coming months. So the overal look isn't let down by the headlights I am going to get some new ones. Are there any ones to look out for? I have taken a quick look on AutoDoc and there are a few at varying prices: https://www.autodoc.co.uk/abakus/8349952...

I have got a Muc Off pressure washer and this is the fitment for the snow foam attachement. Is it a standard fitting? As the adjuster is broken and need to get a new one. Wondered if there was a better one to go for or if I am stuck with the standard one.

Trying to work out if a you can get a wireless keybaord and mouse for an XBox One Series S (think it is the S, been told it is all digital and doesn't have a disk drive) as the girlfriend's son has asked for a keyboard and mouse for his birthday to use on his XBox. Being practical we were...

Something like THIS But I saw on another thread that the resistors need to be a certain type (carbon or not carbon??) as they won’t work. I will stand corrected on that. I should know if this is rubbish as I studied physics at uni so did loads of electronics.

ordered this a few weeks back and just cleaned the leather seats in my E34. Was pretty good tbh, really easy to use and didn't take too long. The white cloth that is in the box ended up looking like this I have used Gliptone leather cleaner stuff in the past but sort of wish I had seen this...

It is currently in gear with some chocks under the wheels as my drive has a slight slope to it. If it needs new rear discs and pads then so be it, but everything seems to be free and moving. Wonder if they have stuck to the discs and that has damaged them in some way.

The Clio had been sat unused from about November and I foolishly left the hand brake on. Came to move it and it was stuck on but managed to free it by driving off. Used it yesterday and noticed there was a juddering when braking that I could hear and feel through the brake pedal. Brakes feel...

Been a while since I have had any time on this. After using it a bit I decided I wanted to drop the height of the seats more so took off the runners. Now they are fixed in one position. Now they are in a really nice position and a lot more comfortable. Also gave the interior a good vacuum while...

Just remebered I have an F20/21 boot liner I am not in any need of if anyone is interested in it. https://cliosport.net/threads/bmw-1-series-f20-f21-boot-liner.836834/ It is a really good bit of kit. I used to put my muddy mountain bike in the back of my car and you wouldn't have known when I...

Could have used a picture where it doesn’t look like my leg has been cut off and left in front of your car!!! (This must have been while I was under my car working out what the knocking noise was)

Wasn't this the car with the US spec rear bumper? From what I read people were confused to why it was running the bigger US spec rear bumper until a crash revelaed an air tank that was used to store boost pressure that was taken from a certain part of the turbo due to a loop hole in the rules...

I have a brand new bonnet catch I’m not using. Will have to go back home and check it to be 100% sure but I bought one and never fitted it.

I think that is going to be the problem as it could be a bigger issue with the water supply/pipes that is out of my control. Hmm will have a rethink. If i can't get the water pressure sorted I will not bother getting one until I move as I can see it happening again. It was always drained, mainly...

I need to get a new pressure washer as mine died the other day. It was a gift last year and was a MucOff motorbike one, although it did come with three lance attachements with varying degress of nozzle pressure. One for a car, another for a motorbike and another low pressure for bicycle. Tbh it...

I have Mossy. After using them for the cambelt change on my old Ph1 and then again on my new one I thought they were ok. But they had it in to confirm my steering rack was broken and then replace. They said it wasn't the rack but the aux tensioner that was faulty so I said "can you change it"...
