mines 58mm and is a mk1 phase 3 's', you need to get under it with a tape measure and find out there all different depending on what the renault monkey was smoking that day!!

centre to centre of the bolt should give you the correct spacing on the bottom of the strut, good luck had to get mine specially made from koni as they had only produced one before with a 58mm spacing, no one would believe me that it was 58mm renault didnt even wanna talk to me!!

good luck

Unlikly to be 58mm as it was quite rare.

54mm at a guess but you need to check could be 52mm as well.

Couldn't they have done them all the same?

Got a Mk1 Ph3 's' aswell hoping it is not going to be 58mm!!

Mine had 54mm (Oct. 1996, 1.2l w. ABS), but I think from ´97 on they switched to 58mm.

The 58mm was quite rare.

Just the way it was some cars have random setups.
