    I went to use my car today and have noticed that the head unit won't switch on. Before I pull it apart has anyone had this happen before. Could it just be a fuse? Thanks Steve

    Replacing fogs and lights with whiter bulbs. Need a supplier!

    I have 6k projector xenons upgraded in my 200 but the fogs and second bulbs in the main highlight look yellow. I'd like to get these changed to a nice ice white but need to find a decent supplier who can supply the bulbs or if anyone knows the bulbs I need I'd appreciate some advice! Thanks :)

    Can anyone advise me on some good speakers and the correct Connects2 stalk lead for my 200.

    Is it possible to fit the GT Spoiler to a 200/197

    Hi people, has anyone fitted the the GT spoiler successfully as I've heard that from factory the cars have a different tailgate. I've received my GT spoiler but it doesn't have any instructions. It looks like it attaches to the central part of the tailgate which could be difficult as you'd...

    I've bought a H1 HID kit from Kev and was planning to fit the kit to my 200 and get the projector lights with corner lights which are an option on the car and standard on the GT model. I'm having a nightmare trying to get the lights from the dealer though! I gave them a number plate of a car...

    Megane surround for new stereo

    Hi guys, I've just bought a new stereo for the 200. It's an Alpine CDE113BT with stalk adaptor. I don't think it's going to sit flush with the dash when I fit it but have heard there's megane surround that you can fit. Does anyone know if this is true and who makes it? Cheers, Steve

    Upgrading to projector lights and HID Xenon

    I'm going to upgrade my 200 lights to the projector lense style lights but also want to get HID Xenon's to go with the projectors. Would anyone be able to tell me how to fit HID Xenon's to a 197 or 200. From what I've read there's a ballast box that powers the Xenon bulb. Would I need to...

    Hi guys, I've now had my 200 for nearly two weeks and am pretty blown away by the performance and am really feeling the looks now!

    R27 gone. Hello white 200 with black speedlines ;0)

    59 plate, picking up next Friday. Glacier white, cup chassis, recaros, black speedlines and climate :0) As far as the car goes....well weight of steering, much better and more feeling, kind of like cornering in an old skool hatch. The chassis is immense, so balanced...It's stiffer and tighter...

    Mobil SuperSyn 0w40

    Has anyone had any experience using this oil with their 197? Costco are selling 4ltrs for 20 quid which appears to be very cheap! I've had a google around and it seem to be pretty well respected. Currently I'm using Elf Evolution SXR every 6k but my car is due a service and the soddin dealers...
