I have the connects2 on my 2000 1.2 with a Sony HU and Disc changer. It works with both the stalk and the display (including CD text). Was easy to fit (no need to take the dash off). It is a little bit bulky but fits in behind the HU with a bit of juggling. Would definately recommend it. Was...
As far as I am aware this is basically a rebadged Becker unit sold by Sony. Have the chance to get one for £500 including the dedicated CD changer. I know some dont like sony but I have always had sony and never had a problem so far
Just wondered if anyone has seen one or got one. My boss...
Aaargh! :(:(:(:(
Must stop my scorpion exhaust rattling on the rear beam. Its been refitted so many times but it still bloody rattles. Would uprating the exhaust mounts to powerflex ones work?
Anyone know which ones I would need for a 1.2 2000 as they are all universal and have different...
Think the head engineer at GAP is called MARK, might be worth asking for him. I had them out about 4 or 5 times. the Guy that originally installed my 300 was subcontracted by GAP and f**ked it up totally. In the end they totally reinstalled it... works a treat now!!:)
With the amp and sub my battery is somewhat struggling under the load (was never great anyway)
Does anyone know what battery I could/should upgrade to. Car is a 1.2 8v, 2000 model
Any ideas on price?
Dimma created a 4x4 clio. Mind you that was using the running gear and engine from a escort cosworth, believe they basically rebuilt the whole floor pan. Proves thast it can be done though.
Expensive vunture!
Had the same problem with mine. Had GAP out 5 times to fix it... mostly due to the first guy making a total arse of the install.
Sometimes the internal Sensor needs to be moved a few times to find the best place... it doesnt like being surrounded my to much metal stuff. Mine was just infront...
Ive just found a 172 Exclusive at a local dealer, selling for 8.5k and has low mileage. Definately like the green colour... believe this was a special addition of 172 made. Called them and arranged to see it later today...
... now where did I put my credit card!!!
Thats it... finally decided I need a 172 (or cup). Took one for a test drive and was impressed to say the least.
I dont want to buy new, anything upto a couple of years old. Apart from all the usual stuff to look out for can you guys let me know of anythings in particular that I should check...
Anyone know if you can get uprated exhaust mounts for a 2000 1.2? Does it use the same mounting points as a 172 (could then use powerflex ones)?
Have a scorpion cat back system and it always knocks against the rear beam, doesnt matter how many times I adjust the exhaust it always knocks...
About 70 quid from Renault. Would not be easy to colour code it as it is very bendy... the paint would flake very easy, unless you use a plasticizer in it. Even then I dont think it would work too well...
...Then again I could be wrong!
sorry for the delay in replying...actually had to do some work recently.
Connect2 adapters rock ...i now have a working stalk and display with my Sony headunit.
Its easy to fit. Comes with a little silver box and a wiring loom.
Basically you plug one end of the loom into the...
What it means is that it is designed to work the steering wheel control for cars that have a seperate display (as some lower models did not have this). It wont actually work the display though. I had one of these fitted but have now changed to a connects2 one that does work both the display and...
It plugs in between the changer and the head unit, but the changer still works. It also plugs into the 3.5mm jack used for sonys own stalk control Will let you know the exact specs when I get it. Should be here tommorrow
Sounds like you got the wrong lead, how much did you pay...as the one that works the display aswell is about £70. The ones that work just the stalk are a lot cheaper
Ive just ordered one from Connects2.co.uk that works both the display and stalk. Is only available for sony with changer ports. Was £75. Will let you now how good it is once its installed
And the end of the day its personal choice. Elia do some nice kits but these do start to get expensive.
Fog lights would cost about £90 with a new control stalk.
Best thing to do is have a good look around and not rush into buying. Dont forget to include painting/fitting costs into your...
This truely is a poor kit. My friend ordered one but sent it straight back.As far as im aware the front and back bumbers are like skins that are bonded over the original bumpers rather than complete new units. Tricky to get right and the results are poor. Your better off investing in something...
