Hi Just Bought A Cup Spoiler For My 182 From My Local Renault Dealer Got It For 183 Pnds Including Rear Stoplight.how Easy Is It To Fit I No You Remove The Six Screws To Take The Flat Spoiler Off.wot Bout The Wash Jet And Wiring For Brake Light Its That Just As Simple Cheers Sean

just a straight forward fit,mind you i had pull the washer tube out of the bodywork a bit more as everytime i went to refit the spoiler the tubing would pinch to the underside of the spoiler and the rear jet wudnt work.
so be carefull when you come to this the cup spoiler has a groove under the spoiler so the tubing sits in it to stop it pinching,brake lights just straight forward aswell far as i can remember.

Bump for some help.

Callum wqas having a bit of Trouble with his, what's the secret with the brake light connection?

Either cut the connection off and splice it together or get a new connector, I think the connection from the number plate light has the same connection.

 

[Gally]

So the normal 182 standard spolier connection is different to the 182 cup spoiler connection?

He says it connects but he can't get the spoiler to clip home.

 

[Beef-Mc]

The connection for me was completly different, both ends were "female" connections for me.

Thats non-sport though.

 

[Gally]

Hmm I think they are the same on the 182.

I can't speak for others, but for me it was a pain in the arse and I wanted to smash the thing whilst trying to fit it. I could get it on easy enough, but getting it to sit properly was a nightmare because of the brake light connection. My washer tube was also too long, so that doesn't work at the moment. I'll fix it if I ever come to sell the car.

Make sure you get the connector and all the pipes in the grooves, bit of tape to keep it in place helps too

Drive to my house and let me do it. Well it worked for him anyway. Then I helped him tie his shoes and he went home again.
