Just soaked them in a solution of warm water and a some Vanish powder for a couple of hours, scrubbing with a nail brush every so often. Didn't completely remove them, just released them from bottom bracket, pulled them out as far as they would go and secured with a clothes peg.

 

[MartinR]

Is that the pioneer x6600 by any chance? I've just ordered one for my Clio. Any good? Looks nice.

Like the CS stickers! Good choice. Can you upload a pic of the full rear of your car? As I'm looking to fit Rs200 badge soon and don't know wether to leave Clio badge and fit the RS as you have. Or to fit new RS where Clio is. Cheers!

 

[Amberlamps]

Cat to manifold gasket fitted. Old one was well and truly knackered!

 

[da rok]

replaced my sticky hazard light switch and polished the headlights again, planning to put laminex on em to save them from the elements a bit

Was as this hard too do. Think I'm going to attempt to do it next weekend.

Had it on the ramp so was easy, hardest part was deciding which way the washers go on lol.

On stands, it could be fiddly i guess, if some of the bolts are seized.

 

[tomhunt85]

Just depends on what state your old bolts are in. All being well it's a 10 minute job. If you need some strength/heat/sawing/cutting it could take a little longer. A wire brush and some WD40 applied in the days running up to it would help.

pretty easy todo without a ramp, what i done is put a socket on with a ratchet and wedged it in place so it keeps pressure on the bolt then get underneath and add the washer then the spring then the other was plus the bit that sits around the spring then do the nut up fairly tight this will make it a lot easier doing the other one up then. thats how i've done it the last 3-4 times.

 

[gaunty]

I did my lights today as they were really bad started with them looking like this

Then lots of this

Makes them look like this

I am over the moon with how well they came up.

 

[DazBav]

Yes mate it is,£99.99 from halfords and we'll pleased with it. Change colours to suit the dash although I haven't tweaked the brightness yet. I put the DAB antenna on the side window as apparently the sun reflective screens on the Clio can block the signal a bit.
Be warned when you turn it on it says No Signal. Thought it was a DAB fault but you just need to scan through the different groups until it finds some.
Great with the USB as well,using a 32GB sandisk cruzer blade as do not stick out much and loads of music.
Will sort a picture tomorrow.

 

[.Stevo.C.]

Removed the vibratecnics engine mounts & fitted new oe mount and it feels so much better to drive. Also fitted a cabbasse headunit and ph2 rear clusters on my ph1 172.

 

[masekwm]

Today, it got a new bonnet clamp after the last one was seized and a few hours on the battery charger

 

[Mr R.]

Fitted the ported head and the 421's.

This is how it was left at the end of play.

 

[A4LLY]

Replaced the rear shocks today, can go round corners now without feeling like the back ends going to jump out.

 

[ed55j]

Took my gear linkage apart and started to fit the stiff shift kit.

 

[Kyle 86]

Repainted my calipers silver. Looks much better

 

[karol_SVK]

De-badge

 

[GrahamS]

Replaced all my abs rings for the correct tooth.

Started work on the Red DCI as it failed the MOT. Neighbour came out at half 7 and complained I was banging too much at 11:30 this morning and that he hoped I wasn't going to be out late tonight working. He's lived there 2 weeks. I've lived here for 20 years :/

Anyway. I still got 2 ball joints on it replaced with the help of my mildly muted hammer.
