Agree with @Brigsy Greenlight are great, they insure my 172 for under £200 a year

I'm sure someone on here will know, they aren't great as standard though

No idea mate sorry

They are probably quite good but I think the head unit is the limiting factor. Not sure about the tweeter

I replaced mine with alpine SXE-1325S, they need lead adapters but are a direct fit

Our house has 3 cars, a van and a motorbike, still all on separate policies. I've looked at multi car policies but it gets complicated when you have different policy end dates and main drivers

I think I'm finally going to bite the bullet and get some spacers to throw my cup off set turinis out a bit. I think I've decided on 15mm hubcentric fronts and 10mm rear hub spacers for the rear but I cant decide whether to get them with a bit of camber to go with the 1.5° I'm going to put on...

Removing it is a pain and they're quite fragile, I replaced mine because the lining material was sagging off

The headlining would look good in that colour

That's pretty good, mine was a bit worse but mostly inside the arch area. Good save

Debobbled my replacement seats for my 172, 180 grit sandpaper does an amazing job if brushed over it carefully followed by a bic razor

I think I'd need it on a drip!

My gearbox did the same as yours, fill it up and it pisses out until of the selector until its happy with the 1.5 litres left. Cant decide whether to keep topping up or let it go bang

Great project, I've been doing similar rust treatment around the sills and filler area with my flame red. Be careful with rust tracking under the underseal behind the filler, mine looked superficial until I stripped the the underseal back to find it went further than I initially thought. I deox...

Aren't they bonded into the fibreglass ?

When I fitted my cup spoiler the one red clip broke but I think they just said alignment, no foam pads on mine either which means the holes in the boot lid are exposed. Hopefully this doesnt mean I will get water ingress

Yeah that's the bad boy! I'll look again in the morning in better light.

The red bit?

How the hell do these little buggers come apart? Fiddled around for ages while trying to swap my seats over, any tips?

24k and they used hammer on balancing weights!😫

Christ I remember replacing a clutch cable on my Valver, first time i didn't have the foresight to use the old one to pull the new cable through. That was a nasty copy part which failed pretty quick so I fitted the new genuine cable much more easily. Still a bugger though.

Totally mind boggling attention to detail! I want to take my beam off to remove some bubbling around the mounting points to the shell, why the hell did Renault use round headed captive bolts?! Hope the rust hasn't crept under the mounts too much

If you've got the bumper off it clips into it, from memory it's the passenger side

That's from behind the front bumper, it delects air to the rad

I dont like saying it when people ask how old I am, it sounds wrong

Fair enough, have they cracked or developed flat spots from standing so long? Big 4 0 next year then, I often wonder how many on here are my age or older

Tidy but am I right in saying your rear tyres are 8 years old?

Removed the bottle and dropped one in with some hot water and a swirl. Did a great job

I cleaned mine out with a dishwasher tablet

Oh I want!
