Well nearly 2 years ago I was sold a set by TFralley in Carlisle. He breaks a lot of Mk2 clios.
I was surprised at only paying £25 plus delivery. Very surprised.
There’s not really enough of them to form a realistic s/h price these days.
I back then was fully geared up to be buying the...
Eyes peeled for them.. unfortunately they are brittle so tend to snap when removed. Many are glued on to bumpers these days unfortunately for this very reason.
Yeah Rich, your plastic locator looks snapped. This sits in a metal guide you will see on the seat rail.
Ps.. white cloth and clean water only is massively therapeutic at wiping the the seats clean.
Guess depends what went wrong. The section at the rails has a Baltic locator .. that usually snaps.
Sometimes the cable snaps.
The section attached to the seat enquires the seat stripping to relocate. Replacements.. don’t know. The z shaped end in the seat is similar to a lawnmower...
There’s two ends. One is hooked into the pivot point of the chair. So when the chair tips it pulls the cable.
The other as per the pic is attached to the runners

I would consider a 182 as a daily if I had keys to something else if a curve ball did happen. I wouldn’t myself if I didn’t. I owned 3 x 182 2’s weekend cars but at the cheap end. All three a gremlin at some point.
Good 182’s are very hard to find now. For a solo daily hot hatch. I would...
I I would buy the captive nuts. You will likely snap a couple loosening the bolts anyway.. Prepare to swear as getting a swan neck in them is a pain. This is needed to stop them spinning.
Their nuts in a little cage which sit in the car.
Take them to an a good hardwear place.. buy your own...
Tommy sounds excellent. I can never really work out trophy prices but judging my owner experience it sounds easily a £5k car depending on actual body work.
I would personally get a snappy wheel in it. I prefer the ones which just look like oem rather than adding a tab. It will help sell any...
