Would the boot lid from a 2002 Clio 5 Door Hatch 1.4L be able to be swapped on to a 172 ? The boot lid on my 172 got stoved in a while back and it's been annoying the heck out of me, local wreckers has a 1.4 Clio in at the moment, visually the boot lid size looks ok to me, but wondering if...

I purchased an Autoleads PC99-X12 belieiving this would allow me to regain use of my stalk controls in my Clio 172 ph1 but be blowed if I could get it to work. So my question is, is there any trick to get these working ? I've read a few sites mention tuning your radio in and storing a station...
