Christ this is a roller coaster of a thread.

Awesome this, fairplay!

Flat side to bearing/disc and tapered side to car. It's not immediately obvious which side is tapered until you hold it in your hand. Even that above image, not really sure what side that even is! 😂

To finish of the rear refresh I thought it rude not to add some new rear discs and pads. Sure we've all seen what old discs and pads look like but for the sake of documenting it: Before After Looked like one bearing was on it's last legs as this rubber (at one time was rubber maybe?) seal...

Took just over a week. They had to get it done quick as they had bigger projects to smash out. I had originally planned to refresh a second beam and supply that built up with rear brakes and bushes etc. But the second had beam I'd bought had a rust hole in it which I wasn't aware of until the...

Dropped the car off to a local place for removing the rear beam, tank and exhaust etc and having any surface rust treated with dinitrol RC900 and undersealed with dinitrol 4941 and lastly front wheelwells treated with dinitrol 4010 and a linolin based coating. Also the rear beam was given a lick...

Great question. I've tried getting them in position for a while, but the passenger side keeps touching the drivers wiper when it comes to rest. The only way to get them not to touch is to raise the passenger wiper. In trying to sort this out (again) today, I noticed the spline on the passenger...

Thanks to @Matt Cup I sourced a yellow didgery to fit the spare turini in the Cup

Message this ebay seller, PugFive - sound guy and really responsive etc

Alright lads, take the wins where you can. Don't always have to look for the faults. 😂 Yes wiper on the left is shorter than it should be.

Boys, it's done. Ordered genuine washers from PugFive ebay seller. Double the price of the 'genuine' 6438V8 knock offs on ebay but these are genuine and come in a citreon bag. Genuine on the right, Chinese special on the left. You can see just how different they are. Lovely mist spread...

I couldn't find the thread where we were chatting about the spare wheel kit? Why I tagged you there. Thanks for the help... Mist washer jets next. 😅 Yeah, PMS rear stub axle spacers. Nothing on the front.

Not alot happening as it's booked in for having the beam and fuel tank dropped and undersealing etc. I previously mentioned I'd bought a spare Turini but the original tool kit wouldn't fit or rather thread on the bar in the wheelwell. Thanks to @Mattcup for the recommendation of using a yellow...

I've messaged the Ebay seller @Darren S mention above. They're sourcing some for me. If they work (or not) I'll update here. Failing that, I'll contact Citroen direct. Is it 6438V8 you used @Matt Cup ?

Messaged the seller. See what they say. There seems to be loads of 3d printed style tat out there.

Oddly the seller had 2 pairs listed with the 6438v8 part number. After the first set didn't work I messaged them and they refunded without returning the item. I ordered the second pair, different listing and they're the same. They barely hit the wipers. Messaged the seller and they refunded...

Don't buy those, they hit the wiper and you can't adjust the angle.

Had the same boot trim rattle and the clips were snapped not the actual fixings like yours. Looks like you'll need a new boot trim, fairly easy to get hold of and the clips are on ebay too. Lovely updates, cleaning the seat belts. How's the plastic trims? Gooey?

Does seem really high and those rear shocks look, unfamiliar? Nice clean base to start from.

Legend thank you!

This is interesting as I have the same issue. The toolkit fastener I have is a bit short. Where did you source the yellow piece? Look jus the job. Also, agreed I don't think wheel face will work.

Bit of a bump but does anyone have a more current link to mist style washer jets? I bought these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191452231198?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=BxhrsMyMQ_C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=PwveFb_MRTC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY But they just hit the wipers.

WOW. Fairplay, loving that. When I saw the 2118 first, I thought 'they need to be a lighter colour'. Looks absolutely class now though.

I relocated a smaller battery in the boot and in all honesty, not worth the hassle. Bit of a ball ache to fit imho, running a cable though the bulkhead and under carpet, fitting a whopping fuse in line etc. That said, the car was doing my head in at the time! The battery died after not using it...

With others and I advise against it. Relocation is probably the better option.

Oh and because I'm a total tart I ordered a new number plate for the Clio. Ignore the bits under the car, currently making room in the garage for my missus Christmas present, a tumble dryer. 😂

Doing some bits over the Christmas break. Rusty bumper brackets, worst grinder back, deox c gel and Hydrate 80 before throwing some paint on it. Current situation. Looking to build up a second rear beam to fit. I'm assuming a 182 beam does fit but has slightly more strengthening to...
