Ben P has a guide: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=258911

Follow Ben P's guide. It's top notch.

 

[pablo_ni]

looks spot on indeed. Will give it a blast.

used Bens guide there, pretty much spot on cheers!

Gearbox out and away to be inspected see what shape its in. One of the springs had broken off the pressure plate and made a right mess inside the bellhousing. No wonder I couldnt get gears!

Ouch!

The only thing missing from the guide was the subframe support arms (under the car) but common sense leads you to those straight away! I found the hardest part was lining up the new gearbox to go in!

aye lol they caught me out as they were behind a bit of plastic. couldnt understand why the subframe wouldnt drop!!
