    Xenon Side Lights

    get a pair of long nose pliers round the cable & pull toward you, the holder should come out just enough to get the bulb out, change bulb, test it 1st, make sure it works, pop it all back in place.

    Im buying a Clio 172 :D

    well he's been honest with the description & if it has had all the workdone, then mechanically it should be ok. Could be an import with all those owners? Registered in country of origin, brought over here, registered by garage, then registered by 1st actual owner, etc...

    172/182 headlight washers, a couple of questions...

    so thats 7 quid for the little black sticky out ugly things complete with the ball bits that go in the end? yep - they're £7 IIRC the white washer things are set at an angle, so they sit nice & tight to the curved bumper.

    just got a 172 ph 2 - advice.

    have you a lot of dodgy roads in your area? apex are spot on for looks, but have a harsher ride than say, Eibach's.. Greenstuff pads & new brake fluid will be ok for road use - not for trackdays though..

    What does this light really mean? (Pic)

    tbh, if its not causing you a problem, just leave the light on until the next service is due? Saves you having to take holidays.. up to you...

    Cup splitter

    pilot hole drill them, bang some screws in, job done. Better to park it where you can get a drill under the front. May wanna tape the splitter to the spoiler to stop it moving, or just get some gumby to stand there holding it.

    Clio 182 cup wheels on a 172

    Just an option. You dont need them. Loony's saying your car's "footprint" will be smaller, by a few mm. Nothing to worry about. Some people want/like to retain the car's original set up.
