Thry going direct to the cheapest sites that come up on the comparisons site. That's saved me few hundred on a similar quote. Elephant, RAC have been good for me.

Depends on the width of the rim, at a guess, 195/50 should fit, but I'd have a look at the rim width first to be sure, a local garage should be able to let you by looking at it.

Was a very easy bolt to remove, just very long so took a while lol. I put the earth cable between the bolt head and the seatbelt metal loop so the loop fits back in perfectly to the hole. IIRC I used a wheel nut wrench to loosen the bolt, was easier than a spanner.

You can unclip the plastic trimming between the carpet and doors. Start by unclipping from the front and then they come off easier. Might need to undo the front seat belt bolts but i managed to squeeze the cables through, then out of the trimming under the rear seats for me was easiest. Ran...

I earthed mine to one of the rear seatbelt bolts. Was fine for 3 years in my last clio, and has been fine for the last few weeks in my 172.

IIRC somebody on here had 18s, can't remember who, was a while ago, looked overly big I think, needed work doing to the arch if I recall right.

Just as a gauge, I bought my 03 172 a couple of months ago. £3600. Got them to MOT that week (front discs replaced) and a 3 month warranty. Renault History, belts done. 56k miles. Got it knocked down due to fronts very low, and no tax and no alarm due to it being an import (but has locking...

Ahh sorry mate, just seen that now, my net (or more likely CS) was playing up when I was mid-reading it and completely missed when you said that. Yeah, as an advertisement, that's good, could treat it just like Autotrader etc and arrange viewing. And once pics up soon like you said, even better.

^^ Ya, I'm assuming by amp you mean, the DAV-Z260. DVD-AMP to TV via HDMI SKY+ to TV via scart SKY+ to DVD-AMP via optical. Not sure on the speakers question, don't know how the speaker cables will be for the DVD unit, our sony unit had special clips to connect speakers to DVD unit.

Nice pics mate, my favourite:

Personally, I wouldn't buy anything on ebay or any site without pictures. And am put off by the charger tbh. A bit different since you're on the forum and could maybe find info about about the car, but if I wasn't, I wouldn't consider it tbh. My own personal preference, nothing to do with you...

Just swap the sky box with a freesat box, from £50, HD freesat from £100 (although the Humax is suppose to be the best I think) or HD freesat recorder for £300 (but will need 2 cable feeds from the dish to the box to record one channel and watch another or to record 2, which may also...

I love that old M5 v RS4 video, I know I shouldn't but I do. But this was mental. Would never want to race against mad bikers, and 55secs in proved it! Lucky he corrected it well, could have been a lot of biker spread all over the highway.

I went with a very inexpesive one I had lying around but never used. Its ok, my rooms not so bad. The lounge used to be terrible, so we paid a bit more for gold plated cable and got a signal booster and it was ok but that's still running analogue as our plasma's quite old and doesn't have...

Hahahahaahahaaahaaa I was thinking no way could they be that stupid to drive into each other... Lets hope they're also too stupid to breed.

^^ Some aerials aren't that great at picking up digital signals if they are old as well. Could try a high gain aerial if that is the problem. Yes mate. Changed mine to a short better one, with less kinks, and its much better.

AWESOME SYSTEM!!! My mate has the HTIS100 but without the wireless rear speakers and for something so small, its a mystery how they sound amazing. Not just good for the size, but good compared to bigger systems. Obviously it wont compare to a big seperates system with bigger speakers (which...

Maybe your freeview reception isn't great in your area or a crap cable? My cable needed a good jig and it found much more, 1st time it found nothing and I'd had an analogue TV working fine previous. Changed cable and its a lot better now.

1*2 instead of "172/182" or "172 and 182" etc, just quicker and shorter to type. For a 172, you could also just keep the back box hidden, "stealth". K-TEC do a good steath box. I always wanted to have a single rolled lip exit recessed into the bumper, but since I've had my 172 I prefer it...

Sounds like he was quite bored, I want to do what whatisjustis has done. I think its looks a bit odd since it has a bigger recess, but wouldn't care if I had a Vee. Lovely colour too!

Haha I like that.

I thought my jacking point is like that, my jack has a little clip thing on it that goes through that hole on the jacking point.

Don't think it suits it IMO.

I've had thw SONY KDL40V4000 for a few months and I absolutely love it. PS3 and Blu-ray is outstanding, upscaled DVDs look damn tasty too and freeview is good too, better than I've seen on some others. I had a 32" TV for a month prior, very lucky I managed to change, beats all its rivals at...

Cheers mate, will try it tomorrow.

Why did your mate only keep it for a very short time? :S Hope you got it cheap cheap if its got issues. With insurance, it'll be very high, but if you consider it worth it then no issue to it. Just have to try everyone mate. Elephant seem to be good for younger drivers, not sure on what...

Unlucky mate, similar thing happened to me when a women decided to do a U-turn on a national limit road, T-boned straight into her. Did she admit liability? Makes sure you got plenty of pics the damage because if she starts to tell porkies, at least the positioning of the damage can speak...

Any other effects to disconneting it? As Pep says, mainly moving around car parks. I often moving in/out of places to let other people in/out. Wouldn't dream of not wearing one without driving. I always have to visually check some of my mates are wearing them, shocks me how sometimes they...

Oh please can we have an answer to this, I've been meaning to post this question too. Drives me utterly mad. There must be a sensor or the beeping speaker than can be disconnect/removed/shot.

Red lip on the black rims looks awesome, on both the cars posted! I didn't know it'd been done in red and black before, was thinking of doing that if I got a black car lol. Wonder if they'd suit a Monaco.... Nice job guys!
