There is an adaptor set comprising of a basic control module and individual interfaces for most sets in the Alpine range.
You will need to remove the dash top, but its really very simple.
The question must be,....are the ones you are taking out, stiff. ?
If they are, you might be putting them the wrong side of the insulation and the exhaust manifold is melting the outer cable.
It MUST go behind the heat shield and insulation.
Having said that, I bought a cable because I...
Sounds like your on Renaults doorstep Monday morning Laura.
Tell the service manager his Mum and Dad were not married at the time of his conception. !!
The fronts have impellers built into the casting to draw air through the wheels to help cool the brakes, watch the Ferrari GP-cars at the really hot venues, they use them on the rear. They used them at Monaco.
Some rally cars use them also.

I know what you mean, but whatever they charge will suddenly look a lot less when you are approaching the scene of the accident with you foot on the floorboards. :dapprove:
Re: Master Cylinder exploding
I personally wouldn't "hope" with brakes, they are the last 1/2 inch before you kiss your a--- goodbye.
Not worth taking a chance, get someone who knows what they are doing to look for you.

You need that 3rd person pouring fluid all the time, the reservoir is so small, you can be sucking air in within two pumps.

I think Halfords keep a selection, its more a case of if they have stock.
The one motor does front and rear screens, it simply reverses for the rear screen.
The impeller blades are prone to breaking off, but sometimes its just the little filters that get blocked.
Worth checking before...
I'm up the road a bit in Cambridge if you get stuck, what about the AA or RAC,
You should have some basic tools in the cars kit, if not I think all you need is a couple of 13mm spanners......good luck.
I'm afraid I have hit the "POETS" day factor, your best bet is either Renault Harlow for tomorrow, or find a set of bolts and threaded rod from Halfords or somewhere like that and bodge it to get you home.
Sorry, but I didn't pick up on where you were earlier, I went by your location of...
Hi according to what I'm being told, there are 3 bolts.
One long one which has a washer and nut and goes through both lugs on the alternator and two short ones, one is the adjuster lock bolt and one is the pivot bolt, which do you need. ????
Welcome to CS.
Where was the meet ? were the Police keeping an eye or giving you a hard time ?
I'm sorry to say you wont get a lot of positive comments on body kits, Lexus lights and shiny wheels on here. For some reason that type of self expression is frowned upon, I don't know why...
