Fair shout buddy! I'll do that I think, got some of that knocking around somewhere - If not it's a few quid down B&Q ;)

Sorry, I've wasted my own time typing this question up - I just took the plunge to see what I could do to the handles and managed to do it hassle free! In case anyone comes across this looking how to do it... The handle looks like this from behind: You then remove the spring: And then the...

Quick one - Should I zip tie the wheel trims on? Bit paranoid that they'll fall off!

Project Update: Wheel trims arrived today - Here is what they look like off of the car: [/URL][/IMG] Old wheel trims: [/URL][/IMG] New trims: [/URL][/IMG] I think it changes the look of the car tbh and for under £20 it's a much cheaper alternative to getting some alloys! Sorry about the bad...

That doesn't sound too appealing to me tbh, but i will look into an alternative :)

Hi guys, I've got a five door 1.2 and I recently aquired four interior sports handles from good old eBay! I have an issue with the handles though - The issue is that the rear doors in a 5 door are not operated by cable lock but instead by some sort of rod mechanism (I'm really technical, I know)...

Ahh okay, fair shout - I've got some alcohol wipes lying around somewhere, I'll use those ;) Ahh okay, fair enough :)

Do what I did to fix my leak, grab some talcum powder and put it around where you think the leak is coming from, next time it rains look at it amd see if you can spot it :)

So just generally does that just means clean it? Lol. And spray adhesive is quite a good idea TBF :) Have you put yours where mine are?

Well, my new wheel trims have arrived today! Well annoyed though, it's hardly rained today then as soon as I get home BAM it rains - Just waiting to fit them now! Will have some before & afters up once they're on! :) Also, a quick one guys regarding my foot well SMDs, where have you guys put...

Alright, cheers buddy :)

I'm making a paralell curcuit, plus I will be able to remove the solder, just get the soldering iron back out ;) I thought so, just wanted to double check :) Cheers ;) Do you mean that one strip = 0.02A or one individual SMD? That's a good shout to be honest, I might just look into that buddy...

Hello Lukeyy, first things first - nice wheels! As for what you could do - I like the idea of coloured badges, going to be doing mine black at some point soon (hopefully!) - Maybe a different colour for you seems as it's already black? - I'm also going to colour my 'Clio' bit at the back black...

Project update: My new SMD LEDs for my footwells arrived today! Spent a good few hours sorting all of the wiring out, just waiting for my soldering kit to be delivered so that I can wire it all up! Glad I got 10m of 2-core cable! I had around half a metre left over in the end, with no mistakes...

Yeah, mine were like £2.99 for a set of 4 ;) So cheaper than 99p each :P That's a question - I've got an old fuse holder but the wire is thicker than the wire I'm using to wire my LEDs; that doesn't matter, right? Also, does it matter if you use a fuse bigger than 1-2A - I suuuuck at electrics...

Cheers, I'll take a look tonight :)

Cheers guys! Thank you very much! :) Out of interest, would you guys happen to know how easy it is to remove the front diamond, would you? :)

Free postage? Is it Blue? Where's the link? :L

I know, but I'm cheaper ;) :rasp: If th ones I've ordered fail then I'll spend a little more :)

That is exactly what I mean and exactly the reason! :) So glad you got that! :) And thank you VERY much! You're a great help :)

I know but I thought I'd chance it, if it's s**t then it's only a few quid wasted and I can get some good ones from the UK :)

Ahh okay, fair point, may do that at some point soon :) Sounds easy, peel it off with some white spirit :) Hopefully going to do the wiring for my LEDs again soon, still waiting for the SMDs from Hong Kong but will wire the switch and put the wiring in place ready for them :)

Cheers, I'll look into that then :) What window stickers? :L The ones in the corner? :L

I'm looking into the route of just changing the fabric rather than the whole door card. What bits are you going to be painting blue? And I owuld really LOVE to change the dashboard lights to blue but I know that I'd completely mess the whole thing up! lol

How easy is it to replace the door fabric out of interest?

I know that but with work and stuff it'd make my life easier if I could just get it all sprayed, collected and then fit it in my own time rather than having to have bits missing, does that makes sense? (Question, not sarcasm lol) It is a good point though that I could just get the bits after, I...

Cheers :) Yeah, I'm looking at my door cards and wondering if the fabric would look better black than the light grey that it is - Will have to consider that one! And I'm looking into the exterior too, really want to colour code it and get some black wheel trims (I know they aren't alloys but...

Here are the handles before and after :) Nice improvement and they also feel a lot more sturdy being metal than the original plastics Before: [/URL][/IMG] After: [/URL][/IMG] What do you think?

Hi guys, I'm looking into colour coding my bump strips, wing mirror covers, bumpers and spoiler on my 5dr 1.2 - I want to be able to 'reset' my Clio when I sell her so that she looks just like she did when I got her, so, I was thinking of buying all of the parts that I want to colour code (be it...

I'm not going to send them back, I'll look into a way around it, if not I'll sell the two left for like £20 - Seems to be the norm on eBay and it'll mean I basically got the front two for free ;) Does anyone know what the rear door mechanism is called if it's not a cable lock?
