Seriously? You guys have a fitting guide for spark plugs? I'm kinda tempted to say that if you need a fitting guide, you should be leaving it to somebody else.
I don't pick up my Clio til this afternoon, but I'd strongly suspect that fitting plugs is pretty much the same as any other car:
Remove plastic engine cover
Look for four big wires going into the big metal thing in the middle of the engine bay
Pull them off (using long nose pliers, rather than yanking the wire)
Put a plug spanner round the white spikey thing you've just exposed and unscrew
Screw in you new one and repeat another three times.
I can do you one for filling with petrol or emptying the ashtray too if you like

LOL, Shut up, idiot.
On a clio you need to remove the inlet manifold to remove the spark plugs.

First 2 pictures only apply to you. You can re-use the gasket.
That should be enough to help. Sorry about some of our uneducated forum users.

Yeah, as Tom said... it's a bit more work than your average.
Be really careful not to knock or crease the inlet gasket at the front. They're a nightmare to get a good seal with, if you do.
It's also worth noting that some of the fixing bolts are in slightly different places, depending on whether you have a Ph1/2 172 or 182. It's minimal though.
