Component Speakers

That's the cheapest you'll see them to be honest. Incidentally I've just thought of three relavent benefits of joining cliosport.net properly:

1) You can look in the "For Sale" section and see adverts for them
2) Full members get free next day delivery from CAD :)
3) A certain trader who advertises/has-a-section/gives-lots-of-advice on here usually offers to match/beat-by-a-little-bit any other prices if you're a full member of CS

If you didn't want to spend £70 there is an alternative... the Pioneer TS-130ci lol http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/pioneer-ts-130ci-custom-fit.html It's from their "custom fit" Renault range as opposed to the TS-Q131c being from the "perfect fit" Renault range. The tweeters come with adaptors for the Clio (and are actually EASIER to fit than the "perfect fit" ones IMO as they are thinner), the 13cm woofers are a direct replacement as is the woofer's wiring connector. There are two catches: 1) the tweeter does not use the standard connector/wiring, instead you have to get the wire from the tweeter to the door (this can be done a short way and a long way. The short way isn't ideal but it's err short & easy) and 2) They are slightly lower spec (hence the price)

Summarising that wall of text. The PERFECT FIT ones are really easy except the tweeter can be a pain to get in because it's so chubby. The CUSTOM FIT ones are really easy except for the tweeter wiring. Both have a potentially awkward bit tbh. If I had to choose between them again, I'd get the PERFECT FIT ones to avoid not-ideal wiring & the fact they're better spec.

EDIT: Just to fill in on the tweeters. The tweeter grill isn't exactly directly over the actual tweeters. I guess Renault thought whatever is in the way was more important. The tweeters are slightly off centre and the exact location of the hole seems to vary between "batches" of cars for want of a better word :s Therefore it can be very fiddly to get the tweeters in/out as you have to oush them down and then slide them half an inch sideways - this is difficult because the tweeters are too fat to slide slideways easily. Usually undoing a few bolts on the dash is enough to just bend the dash up a bit to give you enough room without having to remove the dash completely. Don't let this put you off, the standard speakers are s***e and those pioneers are a huge improvement.

EDIT2: Opps, I lied! The guide is here: on clioDCI http://www.cliodci.net/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=393

Sorry for the mini essay, just get a bit carried away when I think I can be helpful xD
