I've never changed one so i haven't looked into it, My grandad with a 1.2 has all the parts and we went to change it over however we unbolted the ball joint and the cv boot was very close to something metallic (my brains not working and i cant remember what it was close to touching)
With him...
£295 for a friend Renault mechanic and his mate to do it after hours private, Valeo clutch supplied

Yeah these are the tyres that get a good review, had them on my non sport and i gave them a test and they where very good!
A few threads no these if you wanna see what people have said,
couldnt find them previously, think...
Bell, 20 yrs old, 3 years NCB, modified declared, 350 excess, 1.2 clio... £687
Tried them? ^ Admiral was that price and bell matched it as there sister company... because im already with em.
Renewal with admiral: 3 yrs ncb, 1.2 clio modded £667,
Will be looking to go with them for a sport in a few months time...
Add women to the policy, possibly have a high excess (nothing really silly though), sometimes modded can be cheaper with some companies...
I've tried halfords neat screen wash the pink stuff, used it neat with a bit of water, havent tried it in the very cold weather, but overspray on the paint dried like a crystal and was hard to wash off... i.e. saw some dark likes where the water had been, polished out easy but i still stopped...
Seen this done before after exiting a cinema and the car park being taken over by chavs... amazing how much it occupies the driver, had a grin like a Cheshire cat
(it did look fun-ish)
Just read the Auto Sock website again, They do look very good,
I was having a bit of a fun time getting up a few hills yesterday... i always shrug it off after and saying to myself its only a day or two, brave it...
But realisticly for 50 quid... i would have paid 150 yesterday just so i knew...
I used the one's danny called dodgy, they are to a certain extent but for a one time change over was A-ok... just put a but of elecy tape on the clamps so they didnt slip and was fine
Another young insurance thread... but i like because im in the same boat...
Going to try many company's soon at 20 and 3 years NCB... group C postcode... i shall see what i end up with.
Good even coats, Good clean spray booth... maybe a mini heat radiator for drying time (i spray in my garage and the cold can cause clouding in paint) set that up right and its nice and warm for good drying time..
Then also the final part of finishing is when the lacquer has cured... flat it...
On 16"s with pros... a tad high but much better than standard

Sports would be perfect for me but im coming close to selling in a few months and ive been more than...
Go for Eibach, Apex has comments about being a crashy ride, I have Eibach prolines, they lowered well for me and improved handling..
Eibach spotlines lower very well... more than pros... and also have a decent ride quality.
Id wait for second hand springs...
Think im going to have to wait till july till im 21...
Did think about buying another car for the owning of a faster car than 1.2 straight to 2.0...
Still going to try quotes at my current status though.
