I used these on mine - but depends on if youre amp has a big enough hole to slot this on the power terminal or in the power hole. http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=3464&cadid=66a7392eb6560834fcd6d89df80e62bf have a look in caraudiodirect.co.uk web site theres...

Cheers for the help lads..... made a right c@ck up of it to be honest! had to call clio spares today to get them to cut me a new multiplug and wires cos all the plugs broke when i tried to take them out the adaptor.... thought it was meant to be a 5 minute job! the big yin - cheers for the...

well seeing as its sunday and cold outside i thought id do an easy job! got some mk2 172 lights to fit my mk1 172 job was a good one until i decided to test them - was like a mobile disco! everything flashing! :o im sure i remember an old thread on here about swapping wires? anybody any...

I used a bigger wire! Take the wiper blades off, this will give access into lift the plastic parts on the lower part of the windscreen off. Then undo your windscreen wash bottle and under there you can drill a hole - carefully!!! you can get grommets from halfrauds which will make it look...

Im looking for the paint code of a mk1 172 in titanium silver i think? its a december 2000 so would it be titanium silver? cheers

Hi, cant advise on wheel size - ive got 17's on mine and had no problems - id check out www.topgear.co.uk i found them to be the cheapest, service is great, and when some thieving sod stole all my kahn dust caps i called them up to order more and they sent me them for nowt! cant get better...

I can personally say that once the laser alarm on an origin B2 goes off youre had! Think its just an early warning sign that theres a letter coming your way! Ive got mine mounted behind my rear view mirror, it can see behind and infront not sure if ive got a uv screen though on my mk1 172...

Yeah sounds like a dodgy unit, Ive only heard good things about Origin though - so this is the first negative! could maybe be your GPS do dah that youve got sitting on your window, if that was wonkey wouldnt work right either. Id send the whole lot back together - maybe even put a small...

Best place to look for insurance is www.insuresupermarket.com compares prices of all the insurers. Ive been with direct line for years though - always been the cheapest for me despit every year trundling through the yellow pages and phoning every tom, dick and harry! ive got a 172 -...

Hi Billy, I got the spark plugs from k-tec think they were quite expensive maybe around 50 - 60 quid odds for 4, just changed the leads cos i had a spare bit of cash and theyre relatively cheap anyways, thought it couldnt do it any harm. Im sure your local renault garage has the o-ring. Im...

Just remembered theres a metal plate reinforced gasket on the outlet side of this plenum chamber. just be careful and it will come off no bother, again mine was fine so re-fitted it. hope this helps.

I changed mine on a mk 1 172 at 45K just because id bought magnecor leads and thought while i was in there id do them anyways. You need to take the plastic cover off, then undo the plenum chamber i think its called. You need to also undo the induction hose which connects to your throttle also...

excellent mate! will get onto them...

is it possible to get 4 pot callipers that will fit standard sized 172 discs? discs and pads etc already being upgraded just thought id go the full hog. have searched the internet all day but not came up with anything? seen a few posts on here but none with a positive outcome. cheers...

cheers mate! so im talking about 400 quid or there abouts....

I think my car is about due a cambelt change? 50K! is there any other belts that i should get changed at the same time? and how much is renault likely to rip me of for working on my pride and joy!! or any other cheaper places around? cheers

where can i get hold of fred anyone?

cheers for the help guys! will get them ordered asap...

ask k-tec they sell it!

im looking for some suggestions as to the best discs and pads for a mk 1 172? Budget is upto about 400 but could go higher if theres something really good out there.... where's the best place to buy them also? cheers....

apparently k-tec say the carbon fiber splitter they have fits! am gonna buy one myself and give it a go!

I got one on a 172 in the summer, small noticable gains i think and its a bit louder...... still a bit pricey though

cheers for your help guys.... still no word from k-tec today either - useless!

Can anyone tell me where or if i can find a samco induction hose for a mk1 172? Have tried to email k-tec but as per normal they dont answer emails. working offshore at the moment so not possible to call them. Is it possible to use a 90 degree elbow? and if so what size? any help would...
