Which adaptor did you use? Mines got an old school Sony in aswell. I was going to put a standard one in, but the Sony does look quite fitting with the 2000s period

took a bit of cramming get it all into the dash behind the stereo itself, not a lot of room for cable routing!

When i used to work for Toad plc, I use to find it a lot easier to just pop the top dash off and work the wiring from behind the radio apperture.As you push the radio in through the front you can pull the wiring up from behind and feed it neatly back..

Not the oil, that was from ECP the other week.

Thought I'd do the spark plugs today and a bit of under bonnet cleaning.
Been a long time since I've pulled an inlet off a Clio, but it soon came back to me

Old ones didn't look all that old to be fair, but it's all part of the refresh

Put a "new" expansion bottle on aswell.


Another little bit changed...the bonnet clip thingy

Tomorrow I'll change the oil along with the filter. Gearbox oil will be done once that arrives. I'll then give it a coolant change and that'll be everything under the bonnet done
