    Claying a wet, just washed car

    heard a few ppl saying there doing this, i thought the car had to be dry as it would water down the lube? i wash/dry the car then, clay, wash, dry.. so if it doesn't need to be dried this would save me a bit of time ;)

    1.2 16V 3rd gear speed.

    I got the better side of 75mph just before 6k on my 1.2 8v, reckon it could read 80 mph in 3rd gear, thing is tom tom was saying that i was doing 62mph when the speedo was reading 70mph down the motorway the other night so i wouldn't belive a genuine 80 mph out of 3rd :o

    DIALS Mk1 Phase 2

    Make sure its got the right amount of plugs on the back, i bought a ph1 172 set of clocks to put in my ph1 1.2 & the plugs are all diffrent so check before you buy, takes 30 mins tops to take the dash off the clio's so its worth checking instead of ending up with a new bed side display piece...

    HELP pls!!

    So are the ones i've tried to install the ph's 2 connectors then? the speedo i bought i thought was from a phase 1 172, is that not the case then? bottom line being will the clocks i've got above fit a mk2 ph2 172ff? as i'm not a big fan of the colcks that come with the ph2 172s James
  25. Jamesstone

    HELP pls!!

    Another quick question, would this work with a mk2 ph2 ff 172? as i'm not a big fan of the standard basic look that they come standard with & since i hope to be getting one by the end of the year i'll keep them stored in the cupboard untill then :)
  26. Jamesstone

    HELP pls!!

    not cool :( ... so how come i've seen other phase 1's with these clocks? & theres no way they could be hard wired in? even if it ment just getting the speedo, rev fuel, temp guage & indicator lights to work? James
