    Front Grille Removal

    Do you mean this grille? If so I took it off with the bumper on no problem. Two plastic screws then push out from the front. I then sanded it and painted it!! Job done. Front fog surrounds come out as well but best to use plastic trim remover just to ensure you don't scratch the paint The lower...

    Who sells new after market seatbelts?

    I have found that the best way is to get a bucket with Persia or some other detergent in and then seep the belts in them (loosen the bolt at the bottom next to the door). Then get a light scourer and the dirt comes off pretty easily.

    2118 -what tyre size

    I am running Michelin pilot sport 3's on 15inch 195/50/r15's and they are pretty good. Got them for £235 fully fitted at Kwik fit as they were the cheapest place about.. Uniroyal rain sport 3's are pretty decent for road use and cheap. If you are going to be cruising up and down the motorway...

    Recaro side mounts

    Hi all, All, I have today swapped my REcaro Trendline seat mounts for Jon Fonz lower seat mounts which are excellent (definitely worth the investment). Anyway as a result my old seat mounts are no longer required. Not sure of the going price for these and to be honest i am not overly fussed...

    Clio Trophy No.409

    quick update - as it was semi-dry in Bristol today - i decided to take the seats out and then swap the side mounts for Jon Fonz lower ones, plus i also removed the plastic inserts which go into the body of the car. It isnt that difficult a job to do just takes a bit of time to do. I reckon...

    Exhaust

    I am going to Kent this weekend racing karts so if rob is ok with it I could pick it up if anyone wants it. I live in Bristol but work in Preston, Manchester in the week so maybe easier for people to pick it up from me rather than heading to Kent. But you would need to check with rob that he...

    finding car's history

    Also a good trick is to Google the trophy number and see what comes up! You will be surprised what you can find. Also you can put the reg number into the dvla mot site and it will give you some mileage history. The best one is if you go to auto trader and say you are selling a car it will ask...

    Dazzler32's Trophy Progress Thread

    Would definitely recommend an rs192 exhaust. Had one on my 182 ff and wasn't loud but had a nice sound when you were giving it some! Re. Exhausts I had an Ashley group n rally exhaust on my Citroen ax gt when I was younger. Genuinely was so loud I didn't need a stereo and the floor vibrated...

    New owner - Advice on improvement work!

    Mirror caps- they just pop off. Either use your finger nails or if you have none like me a flat head screwdriver with some kitchen roll wrapped round it so it doesn't damage the paint should work fine. Gear knob inserts - I have a 182 silver one in the garage you can have if you like? Just...

    New owner - Advice on improvement work!

    Agree worth knowing your location to advise of the best places to get stuff sorted at local garages. In terms of the sucking noise I had this on my Clio 182ff and found it to be the cold air feed was not located properly to the hoses hence the sucking noise. So check the pipes near the battery...
