can just the element be left in alone to heat the car??
i removed all the heaters when stripping mine out, and even after sealing all the holes up, it is still very cold!!
due to lack of a trailer i have to drive it too and from places and would love it to be a touch warmer!! :(
i just looked squeak, and tbh i dont think what has been said is really that bad!
few people spouting their opinions and one or two hurtful comments, but thats whats going to happen when you post pictures of mods that are a bit "out there"
plus this cliche of cliosport hating everything but...

how can people not comprehend this??
Have you had ANY claims in the last 3 years regaurdless of fault.......
its a yes/no question,
you can just think well, im not sure if that comes under "ANY CLAIMS"
so...
get the raceland coilovers imo, thats what i did in my 1.2 and theyre great for the money!!
also for the record, before coilovers, i lowered my car 60mm on standard shocks and they were fine!
also if you dont want to fit them yourself, my services are for sale ;)
they can be bolted directly to the floor using high tensile bolts,
however this will result in a very low, and very far forward seating position.
alternatively you can get a strip of 5mm steel, mount it to the floor in the same method as far back as possible, then mount you seat to that...
yes you were dude, sorry about my mate driving. i specifically said, DONT LEAVE BIG GAPS THEN BOOT IT!!
so what does he do :(
and yes oiam, it great, 10x's better than excel!!
coolant is only the cost of a bottle of antifreeze surely?? £7?
to do a flush id just take the rad out and blast water though!! then flush the rad through on its own,
as said stats are not very expensive, but it may well be a waterpump failer,
however theyre normally about £20 for a pattern...
for the money, you cant beat it!! i love my stripped out clio, i commute to college by train and its basically my weekend hack!! sure, at some point youll think, why didnt i get a sensible car, but you might as well make the most of that time you can get away with such an impractical car! im...

bhp gain from stripping?? :P noo, not noticed any power to weight gain either,
tbh i did it to simplfy the interior loom.

Became this!! a carefully cut all the un-used wiring from the interior loom! was scarey stuff!!
And ended up like this!

My aux belt has started making a really loud whine!!
i dont think its a tension issue as i tightened it before and its still making the noise,
it has very little movement up and down if you try to move it by hand with the engine off!!
what else could it be if not loose??
alternator still...
Perhaps the officers in my area are used to pulling modified cars over!!!
all the police that have pulled me over have been nice enough, after a bit of an ear bashing if ive done something silly!
i dont think ive ever been pulled over simply because i drive a modified car!
i think my car...
