just bought the led's to do this conversion but done loads of flatbed stuff before. Decided while the dash was off to get the top cash covered in blue alcantara the same as the seats hope this looks good, will post pics of the led and the dash

I like them, kind of a stock/rally car stripped out look Nice :D

place a magnet on the bonnet, if its alloy it wont stick !!!!!!! Mine has both the alu bonnet and the shift light on my phase 1 172 (06/00)

LOL i wish thats was true but mine was the 20v turbo and pushed 380hp and to be honest it would have whipped the clio all day long on cornering with the coilover set up it had awesome car, still love the clio though cos its so much cheaper to run LOl

Yeh thats exactly the same as mine, it gonna be the bottom tensioner and the aux belt has to be changed. Also hope that the top tensioner dont need replaced. I will post the part numbers tommorrow

Age=26 and pay £800 for insyarnce. My PH1 172 has a green shift light on the left hand side of the dash, screaming change gear FFS :evil: oh and a alloy bonnet I thought that was standard on all 172/182

hmmm i had a vw passat and they dont need replaced EVER lol. The tensioner i understand but the bottom pulley shouldnt need replaced though after 60,000 miles :D

getting old ben, hmmm now where did i put those slippers and pipe

starting to hate my 172. Went to renault today to have the bottom tensioner and aux belt fitted and after 3 hours they phoned and told me the top tensioner is also nacked, total cost of job is £55 bottom tensioner, £25 belt, £200 labour and £154 for top tensioner £434, with nothing to show...

yeh i got one on my car and i hate it lol

can the airbox from a ph2 172 fit a ph1 172. my mate has the one he took off his car and i need one so hoping it can fit or be made to fit any help is great

the boy who posted it was probably 12 with a 24 hour hard on, what a tit. i love that car :D

Sounds like the same problem that i had and its the bottom tensioner. Well it was on mine anyway. Mine kinda sounded like a whistling noise but turned out to be the bearing in the tensioner whining but iyts a high pitch whine Get it checked cos if the seizes it snaps the aux belt which in turn...

Yeh mate, dont put yourself out though LOL just trying to get a feel for what i will like. Thanks alot though

Yeh mate that would really be appreciated
