    Aftermarket rear calipers vs genuine

    Need to replace one of my rear calipers as its seized and would prefer to buy a new one over rebuilding. Was browsing eBay and came across this one. It's made by TRW who make the genuine renault ones and looks pretty similar. Does anyone think the quality of this one is much different? Also...

    Direnza cat back

    So whats the verdict on this overall? A decent cheap exhaust? Is it quite loud? Bear in mind I currently have a decatted cobra non resonated one at the moment.

    Boot cargo net

    Anyone have a boot net in their Clio? Thinking about getting rid of my big halfords sub :tearsofjoy: and putting in a boot net. I've seen this one on ebay. Bit pricey I know, but I want something that fits properly.

    Any chance you could get a sound clip? I've got a poorly fitted cobra non resonated exhaust and I'm sick of it. Either going to buy this exhaust as it's cheap or get a 2nd hand stock one

    Clio 197 handbrake not working

    The red ones look really good. I ended up buying some 2nd hand for about £50. I'm going to rebuild the old ones with a repair kit.

    Is it easy to apply sound deadening to the doors of my 197? What is the best deadening to use? Is it something I should try myself or get a professional to do? Many thanks

    Clio 197 handbrake not working

    Hello everyone I'm hoping for some help before I get my mechanic to look at my car. My handbrake has always been very loose but now doesn't work at all. I pull it all the way up and the car will still roll. Anything I can do myself to fix it? Many thanks to potential replies
