£12 in Halfords, only really need it for the occasional charge and with my test and insurance cost coming up, every little saved helps! Opted for the cheaper option on eBay instead but just ordered a different one with two USB ports this time, a Griffin one that i'd say is more genuine than the...

Was quite cheap yeah, that'd explain it not working at all just don't get why it would work on every other car I've tried it on really. At least it sounds like its saving me from smelling it!

Yeah tried it when just ignition, then when driving around and still nothing :(

Tried this too, taken out the bottom and stretched the spring far so I can be certain it is touching the bottom and still no joy! Thanks for everyone's help guys, still baffled!

Belkin one I found sticks out around 1CM on every car I've tried it on now - Not sure whats different about my lighter socket or if maybe the bottom of this Belkin one is different? Will post some pics up on Monday of the exact charger.

Tried that, to the extent where I snapped the plastic to bend the pins out even further!

Basically I went and bought one of those Belkin USB to cigarette lighter adapters off eBay, as pictured below. All was going well, it arrived and I thought it looked good quality and seemed like a great purchase until I plugged it into the Clio. I've got a Mk3, and for some reason this doesn't...

Few ideas i've got for my Clio, would like thoughts if possible :) What i'm definitely doing: Painting drum brakes black (Hate rusty look!), Painting brake calipers (Unsure on color, Id love red, thoughts?), Mending all scratches and cosmetic problems! Carbon fibre vinyl door sill protectors...

Good luck finding the scum who took it and getting your car back! :(

Thanks guys! :) Haha, Posts are so much better when they're written correctly ;) And I might have just asked for help in the suspension section :quiet:

Id guess the wheel would be off for half an hour at a time maybe? Off three times for three coats :) Sorry double post just saw the edit button!

Got the trolley jack and the axle stands :) I just tried jacking the car up and it went well, felt quite sturdy. Where would you put the axle stands? If i'm jacking up with the jack point on the car pictured above? I basically just want to give the wheel arches a good clean as they haven't been...

Ah okay thanks :) Sorry for being so new to this! Never had any experience with cars at all but got alot of plans for my clio and want to learn :) Out to the garage it is ;)!

Would it have to go into the groove at all or just sit generally around that area? (Novice at this!)

Will admit I have bought enough black paint to correct it afterwards when I probably realize it doesn't look great! Would still like to see how it looks though :) Thanks for that, i'm going to use a trolley jack to jack the car up, so as this doesn't have the shape the Renault one does, what...

Hey everyone, My names Ethan and I'm new to the forum, bought myself a 1.2 Clio Extreme mk3 3 door. :) Not a sport i'm afraid but its all my insurance will allow! Very very happy with it and very keen on this forum already! Got alot of mods planned for the future!

Blackened every grill and bit of exterior trim with black in a flash by turtle wax, worked better than expected! Only until I can afford color coding however :)

Recently I became the proud owner of a Mk3 Clio! I'm sorry its not strictly a renault sport model, but insurance holds me back on that! (Im 17 :() Who knows what the future holds though! I'm very happy with the car, and am keen to start modifying it starting simple until my budget improves...
