172 Ph1

[Liam@redmonkey]

Hey guys,

just looking for some advice on where to get the following for the ph1.

Clear indicators/bulbs for headlights and side indicators?

Splitter is it a Leon one that will fit direct on???

Rear bumper to a phase 2??

Phase 2 rear lights???

Rear lights are a direct fit i know that!

 

[Liam@redmonkey]

Also is it worth getting an induction on the 172 ph1 or just ITG filter.

Or anyone had a forced induction from charlie at prospeed?

PH2 rear lights - Need the complete package as in cluster and bulb holder....then you need to swap the wiring around, which you will find a guide in the guide section to do this (Fubarnet pdf) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=394322 - Check for sale section and ebay

PH2 rear bumper - Straight swap I think - check for sale section and ebay

Seat Leon splitter - Get it direct from Seat as it's only £21 brand new, then when you fit it you will need to cut either end as they are a little too long

Induction kit - The ph1 airbox is very good so you are best of going for a ITG panel filter to replace the original one IMO.

You should have just bought a ph2

Need the arch liners too.

THe Cupra R splitter will need to be adapted slightly, its about 3 inches too wide on either side. Got mine from Volkswagen for £19.82 iirc

4 self tapping screws and 2 nuts and bolts, jobs a good un

imo leave rear bumper as is, megane, or mk3 clio splitter will fit direct as well as a cup splitter.

rear lights as said will fit but will need ph2 bulb holders and to swap the wires to match. (theres a guide on here)

keep ph1 airbox and get a panel filter

Just want to make the Ph1 better looking and i think those simple mods do it to be honest, plus payed nowhere near 172 mk2 money due to the old man being in the trade.

Nahhh keep it standard looking, 15's, slammed and rip the interior out.

Leave the ph2 stuff for the ph2's

 

[Liam@redmonkey]

At the moment im definately doing lights splitter, clear bilbs and possibly coilovers.

Any advice on brakes anyone?

 

[digsy]

yeah get the lights on

Put the brakes on the lexus rear lights and the splitter imo. Seriously brembo hc/ ferrodo pad combo from mill autos.

 

[Terry172]

Please don't do lexus rear lights

PH2 rear lights suit the car so well

As for brakes depends how you want them to perform e.g.

I use my car as a daily driver and now and again on track, uprated my brakes to Brembo max discs, Ferrodo DS2500 pads and Braided Brake lines and for my use this is a perfect setup for me.

 

[GarethM]

lexus lights = FAIL!

do not do it

 

[Liam@redmonkey]

THERE WILL BE NOOOOOO LEXUS LIGHTS!!! lol*

 

[Poopensharten]

Well should you change your mind, i have a pair of lick-arse lights for sale lol
