^ these or try Michelin Stealth wipers. Cheap as chips if you're near a Costco. I got some for mine and they've been ace.

I used the 3M kit last weekend. Before: After: Quite pleased with the results.

Mine dropped a valve on a track day last month. Sourced a replacement engine on here and got it fitted. It's back up and running now. Just change the belts and clutch as its easier with the engine out.

Sorry for the hijack, but what/how did you get the exhaust tips looking so good?

Finally used my 3M headlamp restoration kit. Quite a bit more work than I planned for. Despite masking off the bodywork I still caught it with the sander :( Still, happy with the result as its loads better than before, but it's not perfect.

Changed rear brake discs and pads and painted pad carriers with black VHT paint. Fitted Fabia front splitter after the wife snapped the OEM one in two.

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but was this confirmed as the right hole size (15mm)? What's the depth/thickness of the bumper plastic in that area?

Funnily enough, I did the same the other day. I'll have to see when it's dark to make my mind up.

Yes that's the standard 172 size. A fair bit cheaper than the 205 too.

That's not the right size for the standard 16" wheels. That'll be why they rub a little.

Have you tried stripping it again and checking that everything is free to move/slide? If the pads are a tight fit in the carriers you might have to file the edges to give them room to fit freely.

Turns out my engine seizure last month wasn't oil-related. It had dropped an inlet valve, mashing the engine.

Picked my car up from Rentech today. Replacement engine fitted, with belts and pulley changed. Brembo HC discs and Brembo pads fitted. Feels good to have the car back again after I thought about scrapping it. Just needs a good wash now!

My engined seized on a trackday recently and I was left with a stark choice - scrap the 182 I'd had for two months or seek a replacement engine. I decided to do the latter and found and bought a 172 engine from a thoroughly decent chap on here. It's been fitted and runs fine but I've been told...

In regards to the options; the lens extension allows you to put the camera body in a different location to the lens, for a super-stealthy install. The hardware kit allows you to hardware the power instead of using the cigarette adaptor. The super capacitor replaces the battery when being used as...

Unless you do track days I think you'd be fine with the standard Brembo pads. Good value too.

Bought a replacement engine for my poorly 182.

I've ordered several off eBay from different sellers without any paperwork and they have all been 100% legal with both the BS mark bottom right and the manufacturer's postcode bottom centre.

Plenty of sellers on eBay that'll make up your plates for you without any paperwork.

IIRC 15" wheels are the smallest you'll get on a 182

Mine was maintained with no expense spared for 102k until something gave way in the engine last week whilst on a track day and it was starved of oil, seizing the whole engine.

Looks great for the mileage. Where did you get the splitter as the wife has just snapped mine in half thanks to a flying come on the M3?

I would say these, http://cooksport.co.uk/shop/product/springs/renaultsport-clio-197-200-cooksport-springs But they're out of stock. What about Eibachs?

I think the original Exaltos were an 83, but the PS3 comes as either an 83 or 87. The 87 is a higher load road so slightly stiffer (read better) tyre.

£88 on tyreleader.co.uk The two PS3 variants are 83 and 87. It's the load index. The 87 is generally thought to be better as the sidewall is stiffer.

As above, found these on eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261437140249?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Are they the right ones for a 182 and how do you remove them?

Just bought this one for my 3.5 year old. It has "isosafe" fixings to keep the seat in place. Not used it yet but it gets great reviews. http://www.smythstoys.com/uk/en-gb/baby/car-seats-booster/c-591/groups-2-3-4-11-years-approx-/p-9855/joie-trillo-group-2-3-car-seat/

Just got one of these today for my birthday. Memory card is in the post so had to make do with an old 1GB card I had lying around for testing and setup. Seems like a great little camera on first appearances. Got the car kit from Joovoo.com so got the capacitor and suction mount etc

I bought a set of these for my Dad. Pressed metal ones but lovely quality. http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/221775224456?nav=WATCHING_ACTIVE

It's a separate kit.
