    Servicing an import

    I got my 172 on the 1st of September registered as a 53. The car itself came into the country some time in July (which was when I bought it).

    Project: Cruise Control....

    Right then, ive got a few long trips coming up and thought I could really use cruise for it. Ive also been thinking about the 2nd hand value of the car compared to other 53 plate 172s. So, to that end. I want to see how feasable it would be to add cruise control. From what I gather the...

    interior removal on a 172

    Can you remove the glovebox without removing the whole of the dash as well? How do you remove the seats? How do you remove the plastic trims on the sills? If Haynes made a manual for the 172 I wouldnt keep asking all these questions!
