Clio Sport interior in a 1.2

[muzzaspud]

Hi guys, I'm new to all this!!
Just bought a car - 2006 Clio Campus sport
I was wondering if the 182 sport seats will just bolt right in?
I've heard people have had problems with the airbag and service lights, anyone know if I'd have this problem or how I could check?

Cheers

Thanks, looking to upgrade to a proper Clio Sport once my insurance is at a reasonable price!

Bolt straight in matey. Your airbag ecu may need reconfiguring if your current seats don't have airbags

Would that not be solved by the resistor method?
Heard a few things about that but not entirely sure :/

Funnily enough, I just took ownership of a 1.2, 2006 campus sport yesterday

No, if your current seat's don't have airbags, you will want them turned on correctly in clip with the new seats. Will only be about £20.

Resistor method is pikey

If the original seats dont have airbags, then surely you wont have to do the resistor method anyway, as the car wont be looking for airbags in the first place?

Correct, However he may as well have the new ones turned for extra safety! (Side curtain airbags saved me being in hospital, they're worth it!)

Hey guys, I've had a look and I don't think I have airbags in my current seats (assuming they would have some indication on them). Any further advice or just crack on and figure it as I go?

 

[Loz H]

They should have an 'airbag' label on the side if the seat closest to the door.

If you dont have airbags then crack on and fit the new seats. I think the airbag plug is the grey/yellow one so you can leave that unplugged for now if you dont want to get the car plugged in.

If you do want to activate them, you will need to plug the car in as Thomas said.

 

[muzzaspud]

I don't think I'll be plugging them in right now, it will be on the list to do though

Im assuming there is a seperate plug for the seatbelt? I can't be driving round going *ding* every 3 seconds haha

Cheers guys, this has been really helpful
