Oh and I took some pics to celebrate.

Lastly and most recently. I replaced the Orange indicators with silver tech ones, don't worry that's not the update. While I was doing this, one thing lead to another and I ended up removing the chunk of metal that sits below the engine mount. Fair bit of weight to this. Which then lead...

While pulling my hair out (I've literally none left) trying to figure out the above issue I turned my attention to something that had been bothering me. The unpainted PMS shaft. Before During After (not the best pic but its satin black) Small change but big difference.

Update. A little while back I lost the third brake light, I've no idea how. We'll, I have an idea and it involves my own stupidity. Anyway. I did some deep investigation, taking the spoiler off, brake light out and the circuit board off the back. Just to test if I had an actual feed to the...

links to what people have bought? C'mon....

Hell of a improvement and glad to see it being saved!

Awesome. Looks perfect (as well as all the other stuff!).

Right, here comes a mundane question. Cast your mind back to 2017.....What rear wiper delete/bung have you fitted? Looks really oem.

Thanks for the reply. If you wouldn't mind that would be great 😁

This is one hell of a build and a good read. Can I ask where you got the cage from?

Send me a rear clubsport bar/net and I'll get you all the images you need....;):sneaky:

Ben aka @N22BDK

Sorry those images are HUGE! Thanks again @MrBlonde for organising. I agree with the above I think it's time to trial another venue. Also if you want to see more images, @bowz_media and @bowen_7r on instagram. Thanks

Lastly, the only photo I got of mine.

Aaron (not sure of his forum name?!) grabbed me and took advantage of a mini shoot for a donation to charity (I have the charity receipt with date)... Great example which Aaron pointed out was credit to the forum owner Olly(?)

I couldn't make Farmers Fayre (Childcare) and then I was even late to C&M. I met one or two members which was great but missed the rest of you. I was also parked pretty far away from any other clio. Anyway, here's a selection of my photos. Rushed and in the harsh light so not the best.

Yes, if anyone is interested, I'll be taking photos anyway but if people donate £10 to charity I make a focused effort on their car and can supply them numerous hi res versions after the meet. I don't want £10 cash on the day, just opens me up to all sorts of acquisitions. "Payment" / Donation...

I arranged a drive on some of the best roads in Wales and we had a great turn out and a few hundred pounds raised for charity, which is great. The clio did really well. Comfortable and kept up with a lot more quicker machines on the twisties, not so much on the straights. Towards the end of...

@bowen_7r for cars @lloyd_b86 for personal

It's OK, well perfect for my use. I think it's a bit non OEM for your example maybe?

In other news...and where I need some help... I removed the rear door cards and intend on putting some "track door cards" in place of the originals. This left the wires hanging out looking crap. I'll tidy them up I thought. Big mistake. In my effort to tidy things up I've lost power to the...

I've arranged a drive out this bank holiday weekend of some of the best roads in Wales. There's a group of 15 of us. The aim is to have fun, take photos, drink coffee, talk shite and raise money for charity. The route is about 4hrs long. That's when it hit me... CUP HOLDER for my coffee...

Hello, My first post in here (first of many?! who knows...) Tidying up the wires in the rear of the Clio I unplugged the rear lights to give access and wipe down where the dirt gathers. Connected all back up and I have no 3rd brake light. Got the multimeter out and there is no power going...

Got a few ideas... Watch this space. You know, I didn't. Didn't even dawn on me until you said that. Tom is very old school in his method (although he's really young, well, younger than me) using scales, string and ballasts and not hunter alignment machines. I didn't even see a machine in...

Even just changing lanes on the A roads on the way home it was really accurate and direct. Yeah big test is the Wales drive I'm organising. Which brings me on to my next modification.... A cup holder!

In layman's terms (or how I understand it) each wheel has a scale placed under it and using the height/pre load of the Coilovers the weight is the distributed to achieve a 50/50 split. Bit much for a road car but as this is a toy and it was included in the Geo anyway I thought why not.

Went to see Tom at the motorworks who is a genius when it comes to corner weighting and geo etc. The drive there was uneventful the steering was out but it drive straight enough. Met Tom discussed what I wanted from the setup and what the car will be used for and took my hefty frame in to...

When I bought the Clio it came with a box of spares and a box of upgrades/modifications. One of these modifications was a Steering Wheel lowering kit. I never really thought it needed lowering but the kit was there so why not. Fitting wasn't difficult but there's not guide with the kit and...
