Well when the quality of these plates is seen would there be a way to make this thread more visible so that people would be able make their choice a bit better with an alternative? @LCJK123 Try ringing up fancyplates and telling them you're a cliosport member, should refund you some money back...

I got this reply too, then by stating it was just for shows he told me that he knew people kept them on the cars anyway and requested to see the V5 before actually going further so I didn't bother. Seemed to be it was 23.95 for one plate too. Just waiting now for proplates to order their plates...

Ahh! No idea then. Boot seal? I really dont know though. Good luck finding out.

Have you checked to make sure that your arches are all intact? No holes/ splits. Mine has a small one but no water gets in.

I believe so yeah. I think they're going to show the plates as stock on their website in the future though as a selection in the builder but in the time being you have to email them.

Well I'm happy to order and take photos to show you all.

I have spoken to Proplates.co.uk again and they are going to get plates custom sized to that of 520x85. They preferred this over 520x90/84 as they get requests for 520x85 from other car owners so feel there will be more demand. They have told me that the plates will be of the higher quality...

Again, Sorry for self bumping but i'm just updating as I get updates! I have spoken to another company now, who may be willing to make up the plates depending on what sort of demand there is. He would have to order in 20 plates for a starting point but he does have over 50,000 feedback on ebay...

I ordered the heavy duty weather resistant velcro ones off ebay for about £4. Don't know how they'll hold up yet though!

Sounds good! I know on ebay for a set of standard front and rear it's only £12 posted! Amazing what's charged for 20mm off.

Well i've just been talking to someone from "proplates.co.uk" who is going to have a word with his manager tomorrow in regards to pricing for the smaller plates. Am I right in thinking people are wanting them between £10-15 posted? Is this what they used to be with fancyplates?

I'm from Yorkshire too. Currently at uni in Huddersfield but originally from York.

Yeah exactly, not worth it! Would rather go through fancyplates with cliosport discount. I didn't tell them fancyplates prices no, but they told me that they do get requests for plates from astra owners for the same size and that they cut down the standard size plates for a charge of £7.50 which...

I have been in contact with an ebayer who is able to do the plates for £19 if this is of interest to anyone? I'm still trying to find it cheaper as this isn't much different to fancyplates.

Well i've had a reply from one supplier stating that lots of people do ask about 520x90 sized plates, and that they will start to look into making them and let me know. Still looking for current suppliers now.

I think the problem is more that they use standard plate sizes, and dont tend to have the cut down 520x90mm ones. Is it possible to cut down a standard sized plate without cracking any of the plastic? Have access to band saws.

I'm currently messaging Ebay sellers asking if they're able to do custom sizes and how much it'll be. I'll get back to you and post on here.

Any alternative sites for 520x90mm front plates? Dont really fancy paying £21 for one front number plate.

Well i've been in contact with both lambda sensor supplier and cat supplier. They're sending me out a new lambda sensor to try post cat, so will get that fitted and see if the fault comes back. Next port of call is a new cat under warranty, but will just wait for a reply from the seller. They...

It was a cat from Ebay yeah, but it has a year warranty, or it's meant to anyway. I've contacted the people who sold the sensors and will see what they say. I could try one of my old ones? OE cat was out of my price range to be honest! Didn't want 2nd hand as I'd replaced mine as the flexi was...

Replaced the Cat and lambda sensors on my 1.2 clio but I still have the fault code P0420 Catalyst system efficiency below threshold bank 1. When I removed the sensors they were both different, but the ones I bought to replace it were the same however they were stated to be universal. Could this...

No stickers looks best. Sleeper yo

It's the corners being rounded which makes it look bad

I see american baseball...

Well I got a crash sensor from @midge this morning and fitted it straight away. No more airbag lights! I'm chuffed! Now time to try and sort out that EML...

Well the engine management light has returned so i'm guessing that it was wrong that they were "both the same". Will put the old one back on post cat, and see if this makes any difference. Will the light go off if it can adjust itself or do I need to get it on diagnostics again?...

This is what i got, and i use it for uni stuff. Runs photoshop, solidworks, Keyshot, 3ds maxx etc fairly well so should be more than suitable! It's the best laptop for the money specs wise really! Well, it was when i bought one last year and not much has changed...

Only have access at my brothers work unfortunately but wont be able to go down again as he's really busy and i'm going back to uni tomorrow. I'll just put a wanted ad up for a crash sensor or try find a scrapper. For the price it'll be maybe worth changing anyway! Another question, I tried...

Well i've removed the sensor, and cleaned up the pins which were a tiny bit green. Sprayed some wd40 in and reconnected, lights still on... There was water in the rear footwells as upon inspection yesterday we found loads of the bungs had pushed up into the car?! is this common? Seemed strange...

I unsoldered them all today and fully bypassed the grey connector on the driver side but all airbag lights on still. Got the car hooked up to a diagnostics and there were a fair few errors, (low ecu voltage, multiplexed etc). We cleared these and there was only one left which was a 180 short...
