Put your foot down and refuse to sell your clio :) Tell her some of the facts... it is better with the fuel than ANY range rover, cheaper to maintain etc e.g. servicing, sporty looking so you both look HIP :cool: OR... get 2 cars if you can afford it, you can use the clio for travelling to work...
Im from northern ireland so I'm really not sure if there is anyone local to me but if anyone sees this give me a shout :approve:
Any pictures would be great Robbos! I understand that you won't be able to see much without removing the lights but they should still help. I am going to take some...

I have bought the required male and female connectors and snap lock connectors pictured below
Following the diagram provided I am still unsure about how the wires are...
Welcome :)
Get some pictures up by the way... Seems like you already are doing the common ph1 mods - ph2 rear lights, fogs so thats a great start! Would love a 182 interior myself, the standard seats are gaayy!
My suggestions next would be dual optic headlights if you haven't got them and...
Looks cool! I know the standard light in the boot sucks as it gives barely any light
Some tips of additions though to improve the overall exterior appearance from owning a mk2 ph1 myself :)
Dual Optic Headlights - these are so worth while, much better vision in the night when driving and they...

Purchased some 30mm lowering springs from a friend for £25, would have prefered some 40mm ones but im not complaining for the price :) The plan is to fit these whenever I get the alloys sorted with a refurb, getting pretty excited now :D
Just read this thread from start to finish, AWESOME read! By far the best mk1 about, you two guys really deserve a lot of credit for making such a project possible! It is a credit to you both! :approve:
All i can say is good luck with the future! Your creation has brought excitment and...
Hey guys, im thinking of buying some g-max 30mm lowering springs for quite cheap 2nd hand at £25! I was originally thinking of going for 40mm but im sure there couldnt be a big difference between the two :S

TYPICAL WOMEN DRIVERS :approve:
Get some multi-spoke trims then and spray the steelies black to clean them up a little! Ph2 rear lights are a must to be honest, I have lexus ones at the minute so i can hardly talk :dead: but i do plan to get them after i get some other ph2 bits! the standard...

Let me know what the autoglym product you used when you find out ;)

Some mk2 ph2 rear lights would be a nice addition! ;)
Your plastic trim looks like new!? Did you polish it up or something?
