A spare bonnet and wing mirror caps off a capsicum red clio at a scrap yard. (Carlton, S71 3HJ). Planning on getting them resprayed alongside the car and put in storage.
I may have an automotive hoarding problem.
As titled, does anyone live near Barnsley that could pick up some parts from a scrap yard for me?
I'll arrange to come after work to collect from you.

Renault use a lot of friction to hold the gearknob on. Brute force is needed.
In regards to replacements, most of the owners on here have mk2 clios so can't comment on quality of replacements. Looking on ebay they all the seem to be the same design.
The Cliosport forums should be able to...

I wish, would of probably bought them for the hoard.
Kam Racing have the passenger side one in stock and I just got lucky with finding someone selling a new set they didn't need anymore.
This is a first for myself, I've been asked to pay £45 in taxes for buying two €35 badges from the Oreca group. After some delayed responses, Oreca has confirmed they don't collect VAT on behalf of the UK government and they declared the value correctly.
Never had to pay import VAT for Oreca...
I got two techs to do the brake fluid change so didn't face any air issues.
The RBF660 just works and I have not boil the fluid on a track day or a spirited country lane adventure.
I went with yellow stuff pads and RBF 660 fluid as I do a few track days. So far they have great bite from the get go, no brake dust and they just get stronger the hotter they get.

I would suggest blue stuff pads...
Does anyone have access to the renault part numbers database? Trying to find the original rear view mirror part number, I think it's 7700413867.

To finish off an expensive adventure, I have secured a full set of new old stock arch...
