does a clio 172 bumper come down lower than a standard bumper from a mk2 ph1??
want the back to look abit lower,
and my bumper if fugly,
bt dont really want a lary body kit.
cheers
was bored today so i started painting some bits of my clio,
its a 1.2 8v in blue
i was wondering, what parts do most people colour code??
im doing it blue, since my battery and sound system power cable are both blue
ive done half of the lil plastic thing with renault on it, and plan to get...
id leave them on m8,
i really like the look of them
cnt say weather theyd leave a mark tho,
however i took badges of a m8s car that was 10 years old, and there was no noticable colour difference
i payed halfords to do mine,
and they just drilled a hole though my firewall :(
while ur rewiring,
i wud suggest investing in some thicker wire,
this wire with a too high fuse can melt the rubber on the wire, then set ur carpet alight if sumink goes wrong,
id play it safe n get some 4awg
p.s...
was there no petrol stations on the way home??
its a gamble, the computer probably plays it safe to some extent,
bt the alternative is running out and glogging your injectors
so.. are you feeling lucky??
or you cud jst take a drum up there,
bit of hassle but you brought it on urself lol :P
have tried doing this today with a 2.4kohm resistor, (all maplin had):(
and the airbag and service light remained on,
does it have to be exactly 2.5??
or is there something else im missing?
is the battery light coming on whilst the car is running??
bit off topic sorry, but i had random dash lights coming on when i braked,
the lights warning beeped came on if i opened the door with the hazards on :S
it was just the rear light conection had corroded,
like allyrs sais,
just start...
well to be fair, mine didnt come all the way out,
it came out slightly, and the rubber thing popped off, so it dumped all the gearbox oil
we just popped it back over and put a new clip on it,
doesnt the battery light come on if the ignition is on and not the battery??
cz mines always on if the engine isnt.
does it turn over??
it cud be anything,
feul pump,
distibutor (or just the cap)
crank sensor,
or could just the battery getting old.
it does say in the haynes manual
BE CAREFUL OF THE DRIVESHAFT WHEN REMOVEING THE STRUT
and god knows how many times i said it to my m8 before he pulled it out :mad:
its easy to do so jst be very carful n try to support it n ull be fine
i did the exact same thinkg lol,
well to be precise my m8 popped my drive shaft out,
we kind of want at the job with no idea what we was doing,
by tbh, you dont really need that much oil in ur gearbox, we leeked 3l out of 3.5, and it didnt crunch though any gears, needless to say i took it easy...
rears a 5 second job,
fronts are complicated,
i did mine myself,
unless you know what ur doin, i wudnt bother doing it urself,
but i wudnt pay a garage to do it,
me and my m8 did it without the first clue what we were doing,
worked out alright in the end, but he did manage to pop the driveshaft...
Has anyone had any experience with these
in reference to the police side of things??
do they turn a blind eye and tell you to take them off?
or they like to throw the book at you for it??
thinking of gettin a smallish one, but dont fancy 3points
Ive been told if you have seatbelt pretentioners,
and you take them off, then your airbag and service light come on,
ive fitted buckets and harnesses into my car,
but now am unsure what to do with the seatbelt clips,
so theyre currently under the seat,
further more, i want to change the...
yup, we put them on before, only problem was the calliper comes ul slightly higher than the hub, so some 5mm spacers will be going on at the same time
its only a 1.2 8v so its got tiny brakes
i guess its a product of living in essex :(
im puttin 13" x 7.5" minilights on it next week,
and plan to take the stickers and sun strip off some time soon,
would like to take the bonnet raisers off, but it would mean loosing my strut brace, might try and get some smaller ones
gosh, didnt...
cheers guys, should have them on next week, without the exhause and splitter, how much could i lower it and still drive it every day??
can anyone recomend a coilies kit?
