I have my changer from my old 172 that I need to fit, but I gotta buy the cable first and its £86 just for the cable!!

I took mine out of my 172 and fitted it to the 182. As cocopops says, the cable is £86 but is really easy to fit. You can relocate the storage bin from under the passenger seat to under the drivers seat so you have somewhere to store your tyre foam.

Thats the way I did it up the side of the seat then through the colsole but by the gear lever under the carpet to the back of the head unit.

But there lones of spare cable if you do this the proper way is to thread in round the bottom of the door I think then accross the bottom of the dash.

The tyre foam can be stuck anywhere some dealers stick it there. Its a good place to put them but its up to you where you want them.

I ran the cable pretty much the same way Renault do. I ran it out to the side, along the bottom of the door sill behind the cover, then used the clip supplied to clip it to the metal by the bonnet release, then along the bottom of the dash and up to the head unit. When Renault factory fit it they use the same route except it runs over the top of the dash not along the underside.

I used some of those sticky pads and cable ties to hold it all neatly up under the dash.

It just happened to be that my tyre foam was in the storage under the seat Id imagine.
