I just replaced all the standard speakers with Infinity Kappa 52.7i co-ax, they make a big difference with regards to sound quality and clarity over the standard speakers, even better with a aftermarket H/U.
Yeah the grilles just pop out, there should be enough room to pop out the grilles above the rear bench but if you want more room to work, why not just tilt the bench forward or if they are a 60/40 split like the 182's just remove alltogether, takes a few seconds.
Good thing about the rear...

Re: Problem with the warming lights
I have had the service and ESP lights come on before, all i did was adjust the brake light switch(common fault) and all has been well so far.
I changed my engine oil for the first time the other week, it had never been done before as the car is only 12 months old, with the socket in the sump plug i reckon i could have just about undone the sump plug by hand.
Some AV programs won't detect it, you only know you have it because it pops up on the taskbar,

Sounds a bit like the spy-axe virus that keeps popping up on taskbar to say you have an infection then directs to a site where you have to pay(part of the scam).
The good news about this type of infection is at least you know what it is called by clicking on the link, do a google search for...
Been using Avast for years now, can't fault it for a free app.
If you can find out the name of the virus you may be better to do a google search for removal procedures as most AV programs will not remove all of the virus components.
Sounds to me like they have adjusted the brake light switch and made up a story to get you to pay up.
Read the website below to see how ESP works and draw your own conclusions as to whether the lowering of the suspension will affect the ESP operation...
My HU does not use flash drives or USB extension leads, it has 1GB of flash memory built into the face plate of the HU for storing mp3's, if you do a search on caraudiosecurity you will find the extensions.
As far as i can tell your mp3's stay on the usb drive and the headunit accesses the songs like it is an external drive, i like the look of the Kenwood units because the USB drive plugs into a USB extension lead that comes out of the back of the HU and can be mounted in the glovebox or somewhere...
I think that is the leveling sensor arm for the automatic headlight leveling system, it automatically dips your headlights when you have weight in the back of the car.
I had my esp/abs/serv lights coming on/off intermittently and cruise not working a couple of weeks ago, i re-adjusted the brake light switch and it has been fine.
Switching the ignition on/off twice with doors shut then getting out and immediately locking using the remote will disable the interior sensors and should beep 3 times, if the fault is with another part of the alarm then it will keep going off.
If you have locked the car manually from the...
I had a Chips-Away dealer (not mobile) sort out a parking rash on the corner of my front bumper, they did a really good job and the colour match was pretty good, i think it cost around £105.
I had a C2 VTR and i think the rear standard orange indicator bulb pins are the offset type, also i think you will find all orange glass coated bulbs have offset pins so you can not get them mixed up with clear glass bulbs.
Infinity Kappa 52.7i co-ax are a straight swap with your original speakers, they are a very shallow speaker, so do not hit the plastic cover behind the front door card, as for the wiring either cut off the original renault connector and join straight to the crossover box or buy the adapter to...
I am running the 74Gb Raptor as my main drive and a Maxtor SATA DM9 as a storage drive, i bought it primarily to cut my map loading times down in BF2, it has also speeded up my pc in other areas aswell - internet page loading, transfering files etc, for me it was worth spending the extra money.
I have not seen a mk3 up close yet so do not know what locking system they have, but the mk2's do not have a lock barrel in the drivers door, they only have one in the passenger door, if you want to lock the car manually, if your alarm is playing up or the remote is faulty you sit in the...
Yeah my rear brakes sometimes stick, but the clicking from the clutch pedal is as suggested above likely to be the ABS self test, mine does it when i first pull away.
There is no need to remove the springs off the old pads and the new pads should be fitted with new springs, also there is no need to unbolt pad carrier unless you can not wind in piston.
I have just insured my 182 with Privelege for £399 which beat my renewal from Adrian Flux by £135 for the same level of cover, Flux then said they could beat Privelege by £9 but my excess would have to go up and the underwriter would be Highway(robbery), i did try not to laugh.

The split pin stops the sliding bar from falling out, remove the split pin, then slide out the bar using pliers, then remove the pads, once the pads are out you should be able to wind in the piston without removing the caliper.
