I'm about to purchase insurance online, I want tpft but the car is only a 1.2 1991 so if it got stolen or caught fire I wouldn't claim, but as I work nights and will take the car to work I was wondering what should I put for this.
Where is the car usually kept overnight?
I was thinking...
Had anyone had any trouble with the lhs light, on mine it's not flush the rhs of the lhs light is sticking out about 3cm.
Cant for the life of me work out what its sticking on.
Cheers guys yeah so glad I didn't go with a Halfords headunit and pay the ransom prices they charge.
Is there a way I can get my headunit to be able to turn on without a key in the ignition, my old Clio used to be able to do that and my friends current Clio does it too.
Thanks again everyone!
Is it just a matter of taking the old ones out and plugging the connector to the new ones in?
I know they are so unoriginal and everything but I reckon they'll go nice with my car.
Only reason I'm asking is because some guy I know has managed to fcuk his up i.e no reverse lights and the bulb...
Hi guys just a lil update, brought a brand new Sony Xplode of ebay for £55 picked it up and brought a Renault to ISO from Halfords.
Wired it all up and it didn't work after a few hours head scratching and armed with wire strippers, bullet heads and a multimeter I managed to work out that the...
kk cheers lads might as well have a bash at it myself.
Heres my current wiring situation.

One other question is how is the headunit secured I assume it'll come with a universal fit cage or something like that, answer is probably so...
Can't seem to edit my posts!
Just to add on to what I just said, any idea what them two connectors under my speakers are do you know how the speakers wire up?
Heres a picture of one. cuse the crap picture

Also heres a picture of the...
Oh right mate as you can probably tell I hardly know anything about headunits.
I thought most old connectors needed upgrading to ISO, baring in mind my clio is 1991 model by buying a lead which plugs into your old connector.
The lead under my bonnet is a sort of block with holes in...
I'm going to buy a Kenwood headunit from Halfords at the weekend and get them to fit it to my mk1 Clio, it's still got the original fittings in so I take it I'll have to pay for an iso connector
I also think my wires are in a mess theres some unconnected wires under te bonnet too which might...
Cheers just took another look at it now, can't see great as my garage isn't that well lit but from what I can tell it's about four torx (bloody french) screws and your away so I'll have a bash at that tommorow.
Just wondered if anyone else has worked on their heater unit and can give me some...
My blower in my Mk1 is playing up, when I turn it on it sometimes doesn't go and I have to smack the dashboard even then it turns off sometimes, sounds like a loose connection is this a common problem, is the heater assembly easy to get to, would like to think this is a job I can do.
Hi guys, I know this is sort of searching for a needle in a haystack but my Clios got an oil leak. It seems to be coming from the back of the engine somewhere.
If I look behind the engine lump behind the airfilter everythign is soaked in oil including the N/S wishbone.
Anyone want to take a...
KK cheers guys put my mind at rest.
Bit silly for Renault to have the fan come on at 3/4 though isnt it, Id have thought 1/2 way would have been better?
Cheers guys just seemed a bit weired thats all because my dads car and my Mums temp gauge stays near the bottom when idling.
Also I forgot to mention when driving the temp is around the 3/4 mark to, Not been in any big traffic jams to really test it out tho.
Ive got a Clio RT 1.4. Its my first car and I dont know a great deal about them engine wise so be gentle!
The temperature gauge seems to creep up to the 3/4 mark when the fan kicks in.
For example I started the car today, its pissing it down with rain outside and let it idle for about 20...
