OMP Strut Brace



  Monaco RS Clio 172
Hello

I have a 52 plate clio 172ff.. and have a few questions and yes I know I am going to look stupid:

1. will this fit / is it the correct one for my car just to be sure? I'm sure it is, but not as sure as if you lot say so :p http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OMP-Front-Str...0457&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318#ebayphotohosting

2. is this fairly easy to fit? on my previous car (escort gti) my e-tech strut brace was 3 bolts per side, just release bolts on suspension mount, place over the threads, bolt back up. 5 min fit jobby. I heard something about having to drill to install this...?! if so is it easy as I am well aquainted with my drill being a kitchen fitter lol

thanks all.. ps I know I sound stupid so no need to tell me.. I know already :p
 
as far as i know you need to drill holes in the stut mounts to install the front brace.

IMO the front brace is useless on the clio because the front struts are mounted very close to the firewall which acts as a brace iself.

I believe you can get more out of the rear brace since there are no cross memebers between the rear top mounts.
