What driveshaft on a 1.2??

[Struggler]

Have to fix a bent driveshaft on a 1.2 8v 2000 plate clio,

but looking on the bay for a rough idea on second hand prices,
i seem to have come across two different driveshaft, one has a straight end,
and the other.......well........doesn't.

ive included links to the two different ones,
any advise would be hot!

also one has some metal plate halfway down.

only think i can think of is that one is for the 16v model.
cheers guys.

The 2nd one is for a 16v im 100% sure as mine has the exact 3 roller type and a gaitor on the end. .

I would say the first one is the one you need, but have you checked the one you need to remove first?

cheers dude,
might just pull the current one out,
but it would dump all the gearbox oil and the car will have to stay where it is until the jobs done,

not really convenient when working outside your parents house lol.

Thats the only way fella, but if you can find out in the morning, order it straight away then next day fit the replacement,

By the looks of it you can tell which one you need from the pic, go under the car and look if theres a gaitor, if there is then i take it that its the 3roller one you would need
