Do a search for single wiper - quite a few posts in the past.

Thank you very much! You now have first refusal when I sell them!

Take 'em out - weight is your enemy.

The way Renault seem to work, the wiring might be there? Worthy of investigation...

I use the speed limiter quite a bit, as said - in average speed camera zones, when in areas I don't know where cameras are likely to be lurking and when I've got a police car behind me!

Does onyone know how much a single Recaro Trendline seat weighs? Tried a google search, but all the weights are related to their child seats!

Can't find them anywhere, but they might be these and then had the lower section painted with red light paint? http://www.nicedeals.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=21_45_1109&products_id=7202&osCsid=17e50c3bdb60f991ae59c5ca1520dc90

Get one up of the Capri whilst you're at it!

Yep, check your floor mat! Mine's got stuck on that in the past - lesson learnt!

Has anyone got a picture of the back of a standard Renault steering wheel from any 182? I'm particularly interested in how the wiring goes for the cruise control.

Best I managed on a stinking hot day in my 182 was 15.077. Had the front tyres at 20psi and dumped the clutch at some point around 4-4.5k rpm. Your launch will depend on how much sympathy you have for your car! Good luck! It's fun!

Really that much harder to turn? I take it you have power steering? As above, what size is it? Looks good by the way!

The seats in the Trophy can be had in any 182, they were an option in both the cup and the 182ff. Good luck with the search!

As far as I know there is no specific number to phone to check the spec, but as a general rule on a 182 - anthractice colour wheels will indicate the suspension cup pack, and a splitter being evident at the front will indicate the other cup pack. You want both. The appearance of climate control...

That's what I did, plugs in at the back of the headunit where the CD multi-changer goes. Cost me £15. It's never going to be the best sound quality, but IMO sound quality in a buzz box Clio really doesn't matter.

Nitrous oxide for a cheap fix.

I've got some small holes where the Renault dealer kindly drilled to fix the number plate on at the front and back of my car that I would like to have filled in, smoothed and sparyed to match the colour (inferno) - is likely to cost me a lot of money?

That's very cheap! Surely can't include the aux belt?

My old 1.6 laser... With 3.9 v8...

Around 200 grams a plate if you want to talk numbers! Is your stereo all out yet? And erm... you seem to have gone the wrong way with adding a second rear view mirror - with close on 200bhp per tonne, the view out of the front should take priority!

Count me in too!

Where abouts are you? And can I have a go in your helecopter please!?

The plates are vinyl (not road legal, but are the right typeface and size lettering). They were from http://www.craigsplates.com/ I bought them mainly to fit better in the bodywork recess, the weight loss (if you can call it that) was a bonus! Only posted it as a bit of fun! I am loosing more...

In my quest to get my 182 cup to a weight that actually justifies the 'cup' name, new number plates have been bought, saving me 210 grams over each old plate! 420 grams in total! Impressive, I'm sure you will all agree.

Same here. How much is a replacement lump? £1,200?

I've weighed my 182 Cup with Recaro seats and a full tank of fuel - came in at 1120kg. Fat b#stard! With all the rear interior gone it came in at 1090kg.

I was under the impression that the only reason it would fail the MOT was if the wipers hit the strip? Smaller (lighter - MarkCup) wiper blades would solve the problem? Or even a single wiper conversion - got to lose at least 0.003kg from ditching a whole wiper arm ;)

Really? I bought ET45's (16x7) from www.rarerims.co.uk a couple of years ago. The centre bore was wrong though and needed spiggot rings. Spacers were also needed at the rear to clear the calipers.

You could do, but if it was me I'd be buying longer ones, after all - you definately don't want to be loosing a wheel at any time! For the sake of less than £20 is it worth risking?
