£32 or something i payed from renault for a 172 one (it fits the 1.2), i needed it because i wanted to use the uprated k-tec/Powerflex suspension bushes
many members here will back me up when i say mine used to keep up with the sports no problem at the meets in summer infact i even remember a wee incident where i overtook a certain 182 on a backroad ;) you know who you are lol
you will need an adaptor to run it with the standard steering stalk.
i tend to stick to Pioneer as ive only had good results with them over the last couple of years in my own car and other peoples cars that ive done.
im sure renault changed the interface on Phase3 cars and you cant get an...
i just dont want to go for a slower low millage one, mine went like fuk untill about 3 months ago then its gone down hill! freds sounds like a plan but i really cant be fuked taking mine out and putting a new one in as ive just finished putting mine back in this week lol
hi, my engines pretty much had it these days, its drinking oil, coolant, and lost a bit of power (as many will remember it used to be a quick one, no longer is!)

I had 16" Turinis from a cup on mine for a week then took them off coz it handled pish compaired to on 15s, went back to 16s a couple of times but kept going back to my 172 style ph3 15"s, got shot of them tho for a set of ph2 dynamique wheels as i think they suit the car better

thats only for factory fitted cars though its not illegal to fit a set of xeonons to your car without auto level or washers, even although the car they came standard with must have them by law
i had to hacksaw mine off, but replaced one before where it just twisted there all different.
word of advice tho i wouldnt bother touching it unless your replacing with a genuine renault one such as a leather 172/182 one as the aftermarket ones tend not to fit properly, nothing better than a...
Direct Line gave me 20% off with it (£300 a year) you can only use it if your on your own policy tho so only worth doing it if your going in your own name
bushes only tak 2 minz to get out, just stick a socket on top of them and hit them with a hammer a couple of times to get them out.
i recomend the Powerflex/K-Tec uprated polly ones :)
