Get them from a citroen dealer or a breaker and take them off a xsara yourself then you can be 99% sure they're genuine.

Remove the grills, a small flathead screwdriver or your key in the slot at the bottom and pry them off, they're clipped in with a bigger clip at the top. Now you can see if there is any speakers underneath, if so then unscrew one with a t20 torx screwdriver and check its plugged in properly. If...

Projectors are the ones that look like they have a crystal ball in them. If you have these then HID bulbs for the headlights, 6000k would be the best colour it's white with a slight tint of blue that isn't really noticeable. For dipped beams with projectors it'll be H1 fitment. For high...

Not sure to be honest, my 1.2 certainly isn't ;)

Welcome to the forum :) looks like a very tidy car you've bought there! Unusual to see one totally standard these days.

Okay so currently I have the main light in the front of the car, but im looking to add a few lights to make it better in the dark, so my questions are as follows. Thanks in advance for any help you may give me :) LED footwell strips, I know the best place to wire these would be off the...

Connects2 sell an adaptor that makes the steering wheel controls work with an aftermarket headunit. As Dan said the screen should just display the time and temperature assuming you have the temp sensor fitted. To change the stereo you'll need stereo pins to remove the old one, then any necessary...

Got projectors or reflectors?

Mine have no rubber and work fine, might be from the wrong citroen where they're more upright

Found a polish complication CD in mine, quite catchy to be honest.

Got them on my Mk3 and they're fine, maybe you've got given a duff set? Or some from the wrong car? Some citroen have them hidden under the bonnet at the top pointing more upright.

Ask Adam on here from Wolverhampton Renault or ring a Renault dealership and tell them the reg, then they'll tell you for certain

It's a 1.2 so everything's alot cheaper, wouldn't surprise me if it could be done for 40. The oil he's looking at is ~15 with a free oil filter, air filters for my 1.2 on there are around a tenner, pollen also around a tenner, plugs are about 2.50-3, so 12 for the set. Sump plug washers...

It's alright, iirc it meets all the relevant requirements and is only around 15 quid for 5l at the moment. Wouldn't be rushing to put it in a brand new 200, but for a 1.2 it'll be fine as it won't be doing track days etc. Any 5w 40 or 10w40 will be fine though as long as it meets basic specs...

Nay, never tried it but I imagine it'll peel off and not wear very nicely. bennettxo (hope I got that right!) Plasti dipped his mk3 alloys black, could be worth sending him a PM. Edit: yeah that's right, take a look at his project thread it's a tidy car with some good mods, and Plasti...

Clio engine oil should be 5w 40, not 10w80 afaik. Tranself NFJ 75w80 is what Renault use to change gearbox oil and is what's in the cars when they roll out the factory. A rubber strap filter wrench I found ideal when I serviced my car last year, got it in ecp which are also doing a good deal on...

Have you tried the usb adapter in another car to check it works? I assume you know the cigarette lighter in yours doesn't work because you've tried other things? Or else it could be the fuse.

Have you checked every single fuse? Some things share other fuses, so it may not be the most obvious fuse that's blown.

6000K HID kit fitted, eBay blue xenon look bulbs for cornering lights fitted, Philips bluevision fitted for high beams, 13 SMD sidelights which were there already. While bumper was off gave it a bit of a clean, took the top grills out, sanded them slightly to rough the surface, 3 coats of...

Ah cheers, found a thread about it on clio 197 as well talking about it, I wonder why there's red and black on one? Thought it'd just be a case of a red wire and a black wire :s

is that right? With the black wire of the HID ballast going to the plug with two cables, black and red, and the red wire from the hid ballast going to the red cable on its own? I know, not strictly urgent and probably a simple question but ive got work at 3 and its beginning to rain! :( McGherkin

Could be worth a mention then, if you're insurers aren't going to fix it might just be because he's trying to sort it so he can have a track car cheap!

It's alright, when they run head on into him it doesn't matter it's free for all remember so it'll be free to get his car fixed

You're totally right, free for all, who needs car insurance for when you accidently hit that small child, because after all its "free for all" isn't it, who needs to pay road tax because obviously it's free for all, so it's also free for highways to tarmac roads and mend potholes (albeit...

The same guy who estimated the repair costs for your insurer? :s

Cree bulbs generally have good writeup but as I have a mk3 can't comment on any of them im afraid!

Ah the bit that connects the motor to the wiper arms? Alright ill take a look at that tommorow morning/tonight and see if I can clean it up and grease it, hopefully that'll fix the issue! Thanks for that :)

The mech? Which bits that? The bit with all the gears etc in, or the linkage that connects it to the motor?

So, theoretically, if I get a brand new one and keep an eye on the drains etc it should never break/almost never apart from usual wear and tear? This is the second im on and I've always cleaned the drains every month or so just in case and it's never been flooded. As i say though, it was a...

Ah, could it be the link mechanism then? I've just read a massive post on renault forums about it where there's hundreds of users complaining there should be a wiper motor recall! The joys of owning a Renault sometimes...
