    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

    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

    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

    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
