Just a torx bit. You could probably get away with a flat head screwdriver if you have one the right width.

just buy a set of them - the majority of the screws in a clio are that shape but all different sizes. They are good - stops them getting rounded off better

i got them with the toolkit in the boot.

shoud be in any decent tool set

are you taking off the non cup spoiler to replace with a cup spoiler?as when i got my 182 i had renault fitting a cup spoiler to my car but notcied the rear wash jet tubing was too short and sqaushed against the bootlid/spoiler and now it dosnt work? just wondered if the cup rear wash tube was longer?

 

[ant]

just pull it and more comes out ........ahem!

 

[shaun_cliosport]

tried that its got like a rubber stop which goes through the bootlid so i cant pull out any more to cure the problem

 

[Wightman]

putting it on my 1.2... will have to see, gonna go get the "tool set first" surly you can make it fit?

 

[caymanr26]

shaun - the rubber stop is only just bigger than the hole - give it a pull mate - it will definately come through - try and turn it as you pull or put some wd40 on to lubricate it if your worried about snapping it, should grease it up enough to slide it out easy. I have a normal 172 ff and managed it no problem

 

[shaun_cliosport]

o.k mate will try it,as theres a groove on the underneath of the spoiler so the tubing sits into isnt there so it dosnt get squashed

 

[Wightman]

let me no how it goes shaun...

 

[shaun_cliosport]

done it mate gave the rubber a little pressure and managed to get a bit more length on it and it worked at treat.

:rasp: nice one!!! all excited now so much i wanna do to my car, yet so little money! lol

 

[caymanr26]

sorted - nice 1. awkward to get your fingers in to get it on the groove - takes a bit of time. WHen I got mine they gave me a longet hose as well but i didnt bother using it.
