Im carpeting the bit around the xplod amp in red and the parcel shelf in black. Ive gone for more of a classy interior so wanted to keep the boot the same.
Should be getting it finsihed at weekend an neon fitted next week so will post some pics of the finsihed article as soon as.
In the mean...
U sure u want a chrome one?? I just got a connero one, matt aluminium, only ones they make that arent chrome I think. Its the most expensive you can buy but the quality is amazing. Jus got my gear gaiter re-trimmed in alcantara too to match seats which finishes off the interior a treat.
Ive got a 2000 reg 1.4 8v clio. Does anyone know if I could put the 1.4 16v head on it. Obviously would have to change electrics too but is it possible??
If so it will have to be done.
removed mine and fitted isotta wheel at weekend. Really easy. jus disconnect battery 30mins before removing airbag. You have to remove air bag first, unplug it, and then you can remove the rest of the wheel. As for the lights, the airbag light bulb can be removed, the service light has to be...
I used a defroster pipe,its for a truck apparently.Was only 10 quid for 2meters. Looks sh*te but does a good job of feeding loads of cold air to engine. Try a motorspares place who do vehicles more like large vans and trucks etc.
Getting pictures taken tomorrow so should have them on web by wed, thurs. I dont no where the alcantara came from as the fitter supplied it so cant give u a direct contact. :( The guy who did mines away for two weeks but if your around north kent then hell probably be able to sort you out. I...
24 hours later and my door cards are retrimmed and back in the car. The alcantara is slightly darker than the seats but when your inside the car you cant tell at all. Top quality job and amazingly fast turn around.
This mornin I also fitted gear knob and steering wheel. Gearknob def needed...
Well Ive found a re-trimmer who just works for himself but after talking to him I found out he really knows his stuff. Hes based in Gravesend, Kent and since first contacting him tuesday, hes been in contact every day and been able to get just the rite amout of alcantara needed in the exact same...
I need to re-trim my front door cards to match the new interior I have. Does anyone know who actually supplies dark gray alcantara cloth.A local company have quoted me £80 for doin the front doors but cannot supply the material to do it.
When I did mine I used Halfords Plastic Primer and Honda Fireblade Silver paint. Looked great but were really fragile. I sprayed the rest of my interior using Foliatec primer, paint and sealer and the result is much much better. Although even that has all cracked off on the heater controls.
Well any help would be much appreciated. There must be local places who do this sort of thing.
Essex lad - Cheers for the contact but its a bit further than I was looking to travel. But then again if theres no where closer.............
My new Isotta Steering wheel is finally arriving in the next two days (had to wait for hub from Italy). So now I need to get it fitted sharpish!!!
Does anyone know who can remove my current air bag wheel and fit the new one, either in North Kent or possibly Essex ?????
If so any idea of...
http://www.confused.comwww.confused.com really is an excellent service when looking for insurance. I stuck with tesco when renewing this year as I couldnt be arsed with spending hours declairing all my mods again, although a couple of places provided cheaper quotes.
Tesco - £870 (including...
Well the guy assured me thats the one it was and charged me an extra £30 so it better be. If it turns out to be the black one Ill expect the £30 quid back!!!!
So has anyone actually got a step by step guide on how to change the steering wheels over then??????
Guessing no-one ever re-connects the air bag wheel then?? LOL
Ordered my steering wheel, only problem is ive got to wait 6 weeks to have the hub sent over from italy!!!!!! I could have tried a different brand which they had in stock, but I decided to wait for the aluminium isotta. If...
I thought it was dangerous to try and wire around the missing airbags??
Tomclio 16v - The member name freddynamic2001 is not recognised and the PM wont send!!
Oh well mine probable already wont fire then as Ive already had to pull the airbag light out when changing seats.
I was originally planning on doing it myself but not so sure now. Cheers for your help everyone. Will PM freddynamic2001 and see what he says.
Has anyone thought of writing a...
Do you guys have an idea how much it will cost to get it changed?? Any of you done this in your car?
Tomclio16V - would freddynamic2001 be able to help with actually removing the old one?? Has it done it before?
Nope its the isotta evolution, no airbag but will look lush with my re-trimmed and sprayed interior!!!
As ive already fitted 172 seats I have already removed the airbag light from my dash so that isnt a problem. Just needed to know it was possible. I figure I can hardly get a magazine feature...
Is it possible to remove an airbag steering wheel from a 98+ clio???? I want to order an isotta one like right away but want to be sure I can actually fit it before I do!!
Quick answer needed please!!!
The sporty clios all have the same seats they are just covered in different materials.
I have just swapped my clio 1.4 s seats for 172 seats (silver stiching 2002 type) and the visual difference is definitly worth it.
With regard to the airbag and service light, no you cannot connect the...
