I've been looking into getting some bonnet lifters but the only ones I've seen for sale on here fit onto the slam panel. Is there any reason why they can't be fitted to the wings? Surely they would be strong enough cause the stand that comes on the car goes onto the wing.
Silver clio with side skirts, think I've seen it about before.
A lad we were talking to in a blue clio with big wheels, not sure what your name is on here
I have just bought a samco induction elbow for my PH1, it fits onto the plenum and the filter fine, but I can't fit it onto the breather. It is the right shape but the hose is too small to fit onto the breather.
Someone mentioned that you had to do a modification to fit it onto a PH1, does...
How do you remove this from a mk2 ph2? It's just the part that surrounds the radio/time/temp display. Do I have to take the top half of the dash off or can it be removed alone.
What would people recommend to use on the black plastics on the exterior. I'm not after anything fancy, just to look OK. I have some products at the minute but they tend to run off the trim and onto the bodywork if the cars are left in the rain.
Bought the car in September, since then haven't done a lot to it but there may be a few more things to come.
Don't have any pictures of when I first bought it with a 6"x4" magnex oval exhaust which was the first thing I removed.

I'm trying to find somewhere that sells ball joints for a ph1 172.
I tried my local motor factors but they don't do them.
Does anyone know anywhere that sells these as renault don't sell the ball joints seperate.
I'm not a tight arse who won't buy a full bottom arm, I have a plan.
Went to a breakers today and seen a mk2 ph1 clio with a full dark blue leather trim. The car was not a 172, had some standard alloy wheels, possibly a 1.4 16v.
Did they make these from factory or has someone has it done?
I have a mk2 ph1 and the exterior rear side strip keeps coming off. The clips have snapped and doesn't stay on too well so I went and got a one from a mk2 ph2 which looks the same. Anyway I fitted it but it's a different shape to the front one so I now know they're different.
I checked the...
I've been to look at a few clios this week, all 1.2 16v Mk2 Ph2. Anyway I noticed that both of them looked a bit dodgy. When I took the oil cap off there was a very slight amount of water on the oil and in the expansion bottle there appeared to be oil sitting in the bottom, about 1cm deep...
I always thought Exclusive wheels were all silver but if you look at the picture of one in the choice of avatars then the centre of the centre cap is black.
Anyone got any ideas?
I'm fitting an amp into my clio but I'm not sure where to feed the power cable through from the engine bay into the car. Is there a hole which is any good for this or any suggestions where to make one?
Cheers

I'm painting my wheels and thanks to someone on here I now have a lend of some steel wheels to stand the car on. Will these clear the brakes OK? The car won't be moving, just to put it on rather than axle stands.
I would like to remove my rear wiper arm but don't really want to put a grommet in the hole. I seem to remember you can buy a base plate from renault which doesn't have the cut out for the wiper. Does anyone know the part number if this does exist.
Please note there is a possibility this may...
A few weeks ago I was at a VW car show and bought some new cleaning products. Amongst a load of other things I came away with a Meguiars clay kit. It consists of microfibre, 2 clay bars, bottle of quick detailer and a bottle of paint cleaner.
What I want to know is when do I use the paint...
I got my cam belt, aux belt, inlet manifold, fuel rail cover, rocker cover and spark plugs changed last week. Since I got it done it's been spot on, until yesterday. I suspect the plugs are at fault. I used Bosch Super 4 from halfords. I've changed the coil pack which has had no effect...
To confirm, what's the plans for the Clio Sport national meet? I heard it was meant to be organised for the day before FCS at a local venu but haven't heard anything since.
Also what's the crack with FCS. If you pay to get your car in the show then when do you have to be there and when do...
