i spoke to Mark Fish the other day about a Geo set up, and he recommended leaving the rear camber alone and tweaking the front a little, it is quite a long drive, so will look at going down when i have week off
Great work returning it to standard-ish.
At what mileage did you replace the cable and how much did it set you back?
One thing that I didn't like in the Trophies/Cups I have test driven so far is the very heavy clutch, so it is good to know this has helped.

Just to let you know these are like hens teeth.
You will see in my picture with the shock showing that the bottom of my liner had burst.
I was lucky to get 2 second hand ones for £15 as i did not fancy paying £80+ for these.

Clio 172 / 182 / Trophy are all the same but they are forever snapping and cracking hence the fact that they are like hens teeth.
If you find them up for sale they won't be there long and as they are £37 + vat each they are not cheap either.

Cheers MarcR, think i will stick with my custom job for a bit
its strange though, because i thought maybe it just broke off the arch liner that is on it, but i felt around the edge and did not seem like anything was missing

It protects the belt at drivers side and then on the other side it protects the earth strap and things.
If its burst under the bottom where it joins on the bumper it also lets water (if raining) into the fog light area and wiring along with the horn on the passenger side.
I changed mine ASAP as come winter all sorts of stuff will be getting thrown up.
