Bought projector headlights for my car. Now getting them fitted by a Renault dealer and they have just shown me that the connectors won't go into the headlight far enough and it's causing all sorts of weird electrical problems with the lights. The old headlights have been put back on in the...

Put the mirrors back to cup black, only painted this time. Had the roof wrapped gloss black and got my new retrimmed wheel on. Wondering if I've went too far with the black and blue theme now. But I'm sure I will get used to it. [/URL]Untitled by Chris McMahon, on Flickr[/IMG] [/URL]Untitled by...

Was replacing the spark plugs the other day and noticed that the rubber seal on one of the pencil coils that sits below the bit that you screw down has perished and come loose from the coil. Could that have any effect and is it worth changing? The car is driving fine.

Something might be coming up at work which would require me to drive a lot more than I currently do and I don't want to put needless miles on the Clio but I also don't want to sell it. I think my best option would be to buy a cheap diesel shed. Ideally I'd want something with cheap road tax...

Gave the car a good wash yesterday inside and out and took a few photos. I think now with the spacers on that the cosmetic changes to the car are finished. The only thing I would consider doing extra is lowering the car but I'm not convinced it's worth the investment as all I would be actually...

Bought 20mm spacers for the car and they came with the longer bolts but I've noticed that the head on the new bolts is 17 and not 19 anymore. Will this make any difference and is it safe????

Purchased some 200 cup wheels and had them finished in satin black and I love them. Spacers on next and then to contemplate lowering the car :/ [/URL]New black 200 cup wheels by Chris McMahon, on Flickr[/IMG] [/URL]New black 200 cup wheels by Chris McMahon, on Flickr[/IMG]

Just a quick question, I'm buying a set of rs200 wheels and getting them done in black, they are the 5 spoke ones with split spokes, I think they are off the 200 cup. Just checking that these are the same fitment as my 197 anthracite wheels so I can re use my tyres which are still in excellent...

Another noise, surely this can't be another ball joint? The left one was replaced about a month ago! Any help appreciated guys, here's a vid I took. http://youtu.be/gLvB5kQcJ8k

Just curious as to why most of the enthusiasts on here chose Renault cars? Whether that be a Clio, Meg or whatever. GO!!!

had the lights tinted yesterday. i really like the rear lights but im not so sure about front ones. they were done with film so they shouldnt be hard to reverse but i really havent made my mind up at all yet. took a load of photos today, have a look and let me know your opinions please...

Anybody got any photos of a racing blue 197 with black badges? Toying with buying these from eBay but don't know if it will look right with my colour...

Fitted 4 new goodyear eagle f1 and had the tracking sorted too and on the drive home the check esp light came on. So pulled into the hard shoulder and switched the engine off, the light disappeared. After another few miles it came on again. Stopped at an atm and drove off and the light hasn't...

Right guys I need your opinions on black code. I'm being offered a terraclean and a remap package for £300 but their remap figures are shall we say optimistic. With an induction kit and exhaust system they are telling me that I can see gains of 35bhp and 44ftlb of torque. From what I can gather...

When installing the new exhaust we noticed the heat shield was hanging down a bit and we tried our best to secure it with the oem points but it's still a bit slack over the link pipe after the long straight section. Is there any risk drilling or riveting into the bottom of the car to properly...

So I installed the ktr induction kit today (fiddly ba5tard of a job in that wee engine bay and all the stupid stuff attached to that battery box) and it sounds absolutely incredible, worth the money alone. but when I first started the car I was getting a very noticible petrol smell, and the car...

Hi all, I've made the decision to mod the car after saying I wasn't going to two weeks ago. I'm not going to go nuts, I only plan to fit a scorpion cat back system and ktec induction kit then get the engine remapped to reflect these changes and hopefully get a bit more torque. Now, I know...

radio wasnt working in the car (2008 197 cup), so i took it out and found that only 3 parts were connected, black housing, grey housing and the aerial. after rooting around i found a set of wires with a yellow housing so i connected that and it finally let me put the code in a get the radio...
