    Engine cover: What is its purpose?

    It must be just you ! You buy the engine oil cover separate from the engine cover ;)

    172 Exhaust.....

    Everybody has this problem . Like Gavfre says , go for a stainless one as they cost less than the Renault one and you'll get a lifetime warranty . I had a catback on my 172 , cost £270 fabricated and fitted by powerflow in Burnley .

    "Protected" music downloads, whats the point?

    Thats why i do it illegally , no hassle with the songs , do whatever ya want with em .They're not exactly tempting people to buy music legally when you can't do what you want to do with the song once you've bought it . When will they ever learn ;)

    Is changing the air filter....

    They are torx screws so you need a T30 torx bit . You can get away with using a flat blade screwdriver on a torx screw but its always best to use the correct tool for the job . Just an example of what they look like . You can usually pick up a cheap set for a few quid ...

    Aftermarket pedals

    ^^^^ You could probably make some like i did out of aluminium sheet , whereas i pop riveted mine on in the original holes , you could epoxy resin them onto the original pedals underneath the rubbers . Probably cost you about £15 tops for both the ally sheet and expoxy , plus you'll have...

    Cheap Cup splitter - eBay.

    Cheap as chips at the minute , let the bidding war begin , lol . Why do people always bid straight away on items , 6 days and 21 hrs left , its always won in the last few seconds anyway if its gonna be popular .

    Aftermarket pedals

    You'll have to drill the pedals underneath the rubber grip mate , and it'll be a right b*tch to do , you'll need a good sharp drill bit(s) , a good powerful drill and lots of sweatin' in this weather , lol .

    Aftermarket pedals

    I just made some new pedals when the ones on my 172 wore away on the edges . Excuse the sh*t on the floor and the dirty pedals , the car needed a good clean .

    Pissed off with insurance!

    Nice one .Good idea getting their name , date etc just in case . Pretty unusual though imo .Most companies want to know about any mods .

    Pissed off with insurance!

    Sounds a bit dodgy to me , an insurance company who lets you do modifications without telling them !You sure you got your info right mate ?? :approve: Plus they won't cover 172 / 182's anymore .

    VERY Cheap car insurance !

    Have you tried privilege online . I was quite surprised how much cheaper it was than last years premium with Adrian Flux . Just have to wait n see when i get my renewal quote off them and if they will match it .

    Full Valet.... How much?

    ^^^^ Agree ! You'd need to be fitting in about 3 cars a day to make it worth your while .

    alarms for a vx

    Check out Dyamique Debz post . Her alarm sounds like a good one . I guess it depends on what features you want and your budget . http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=151347

    Full Valet.... How much?

    I didn't mean it to sound like that , just that £40 - £45 for a full valet as Benclelland said , taking a full day to do isn't alot of money imo .

    Replacing 172 Seats.. how hard is it?

    I'm guessing that you would have to disconnect the battery for about 30 mins before you fit the new seats and plug in the new connector ,then reconnect the battery afterwards, i might be wrong , if i am somebody correct me .
