    how easy is it to fit different front seats?

    Yes buddy that's the way to do it, just need to check the dimensions of the seat your buying, to check they will physically fit into the clio And yeah airbag is just a case of resistors

    how easy is it to fit different front seats?

    Cheapest option is to sort of make your seats using the clio runners etc om the new seats Relatively straightforward but a pain in the ass job You can buy frames, but they are generally very expensive, if you can find ones for he seats in question

    Nick's Black 1.2 16v

    When I had a 1.2 before my 172, the best thing I did was change the interior for the sport version Can pick the interiors up cheap compared to most cars, think I paid £180 for the whole lot

    1.4 16v tapping ticking noise *video*

    Halfords are doing 4 litres of engine oil for £12 at the minute too which helps! Not sure about where to get the addative, maybe euro car parts ? Not sure

    1.4 16v tapping ticking noise *video*

    Lol okay, well oil changes help prevent tappet noises by keeping it all clean inside etc Obviously I can't say for certain from a video if it is that, but it does sound like it If it where me, I'd do an oil change for the correct oil. You can also get some additive for the oil to help with...

    my MK3 Golf GTI anni

    Not sure what to do, refurbish the bbs again will be a pain in the ass. That's why I was thinking some sort of standard alloy, no paint to chip off then! But there's very few I like and fewer still that fit Is either powder coating or plasti dip more durable than painting ?

    my MK3 Golf GTI anni

    I prefer the bbs but I'm just not happy with the finish now, and as they are splits it's not straight forward to respray them when they get damaged. Any idea if powder coating is any more durable than painting ? I think the audi alloys are off a TT but not 100% Cheers buddy, nah can't say I...

    my MK3 Golf GTI anni

    ok, the bbs are turning into a nightmare to keep clean and they also chip insanely easily which is very annoying because im OCD about having a clean looking car so im thinking of selling them and getting a set of these, however in 16s not 17s but the picture gives the idea (not my photo or car)...

    Swapping 1.2 16v for a 172? Running costs difference?

    Never mind bud, you were happy to buy it so don't feel bad. Just try and sell it for a good price but be reasonable, put it on faFacebook and gumtree etc which are free for a high is price, if literally no interest then just drop it if you decide to pay for auto trader or something It's worth...

    Anyone know what and where to get these for the Interior on my Track car

    Not sure exactly but skateboard grip tape would be ideal, should stick straight to the car, also pretty cheap iirc

    Swapping 1.2 16v for a 172? Running costs difference?

    You won't know without phoning up bud as it depends on the under writter of your current policy. They may be fine with your age on a 1.2 say but that u der writers policy might say no under 25 in anything over a 1.6 etc. Had it when I swapped bikes last year, was on a gsxr600 for like £300 fully...

    Swapping 1.2 16v for a 172? Running costs difference?

    You should be able to update your insurance but dependant on your age and insurance company they may either say no or be outrageously priced. Get a new quote on comparison site for a 172 hen ring your own insurer and see what they offer, then haggle Although your uncle owns a garage does he do...

    Swapping 1.2 16v for a 172? Running costs difference?

    Went from a 1,2 to 172 a few years ago Petrol wise no real difference from day to day. Tax and servicing is the killer Easiest thing to do is buy a car that's not long had all belts etc done. Car might cost a bit more but will be worth it when you see how much a major service can cost And...
