You're better off getting a floor out of a written off 182, I doubt Renault have spare 182 boot floors for sale tbh.
Why do you want to do this anyway?
It seems alot of work for no real gain, there are 172 systems that are just as good,
plus you can get a 182 replica system that fits the 172 if you just want the look.

182 track, Mk7 ST
As above, cut it out and weld a plate in if it bothers you that much.
Have a look at Kenny_cups (think that's his username) thread as he did this in his but only as it's being built as a hardcore track car amongst other reasons, it might help you out a bit if you can't get hold of a new floor.

Renault actually do a piece of steel that fits perfectly in place of where the spare wheel well used to be. So you can just cut the wheel
well out and weld it in place, seam seal it and paint it, done.
I'll get the part number for you later on if you're interested.
You shouldn't just weld in a flat sheet of steel as it could reduce the impact strength of the rear end.
The plate you get from renault has been pressed into shape so it is almost corrugated (unsure on spelling) so it is stronger.
I personally think the 172 exhaust is better, the cat to centre pipe join on the 182 is pants!

PH-reebone did it in his ph1. Costly IIRC.

Long story short - the rear-beam slipped off the jack and the jack has dented the wheel well, so I’d also be interested in the wheel-well delete piece. Do you/anyone please know how much it costs? Thanks.
220 Trophy
Jack, do you please have a picture/photo of the floor piece, I could'nt get anywhere using that part number at Renault, thanks.
220 Trophy
Jack, Renault have come good and provided a picture of the boot floor, have you fitted one of these?, do I need to purchase any other bits? Any other useful info would be greatly appreciated.

the piece pictured is to convert it to a 182 boot floor (no spare wheel well)

It’s now on the 'to-do list' for when it’s next in at TDF.
Anyone advise on this since 2012?
I'm contemplating just using some flat sheet but if this part is relatively lo cost then seems like a good solution.
Around £120 It seems. Flat sheet is the better option from a cost point of view.

Raider, 172, the van
Cost me £50 for a 182 boot floor out of the scrappy I cut the welds there are 16 1-2" welds holding the panel in place.
