    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Yes! The Mk2 Ph1 definitely has the better shape! Nothing like the brand new ones they're throwing out now, too over styled in my opinion. I'm desperate for some dual optics but my Grande doesn't have the fuse connections .. haven't wired up the fogs yet either as there's no loom connection...

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Started some colour coding .. just sprayed these after having grey wings since last week! Just a clear coat to go, hoping they don't look that dark in the sunlight though. It is late and the lights in my studio are pretty dim! Pretty chuffed with the finish so far though .. can't wait to see...

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    I was looking for a replacement cluster for the passenger side but a single light was nearly as costly as a set of the ph2 ones .. it was a financial decision but I'd like to get a new ph1 to keep should I ever want to restore it back to originals. Car itself is in pretty good shape, I colour...

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Noooo .. poor Clio! My foot wells were about 5 inches deep over Xmas, it was the sunroof. Few days drying it and some silicone sorted it right out! 182 though .. *drool*

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Now the MOT is done I'm gonna give him a damn good service and start work on the interior .. I've only got ring fit trims on at mo too but eventually I'll get some proper alloys. Really wanted to upgrade to dual optics but I don't have fuse connections .. want to try and avoid aftermarket mods...

    Mk2 Ph1 Front fogs installation help!

    Fogs arrived this morning! Whacked them straight in .. love how they look, shame they're not wired in yet though. @McDriftin .. I'm gonna have to go aftermarket with them. Any tips on what to use? Want to put the switch in by the headlight adjuster on the dash. Am I also right in thinking I...

    Mk2 Ph1 Front fogs installation help!

    Quick update .. my ph2 lights arrived yesterday and got those in and working in less than 20mins thanks to the member guides! I plan on doing a bit of rewiring to get both rear fogs working though .. never understood why ph1's only have the driver side rear fog when the wiring is there for...

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Look what arrived this afternoon!! .. first mod installed and working! Why is it though that these Ph1's only have a live feed to the driver side fog light?! The wires are there passenger side but they're dead .. I'd quite like them both working. Best dig out the soldering iron I guess ..

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Cheers for your advice @Scrooge :blush: He's definitely clean! I've basically stripped him inside .. cleaned, scrubbed and reassembled. I'm thinking of doing a custom interior, I'm quite the creative perfectionist and wanted to give it my own stamp but will use sport features such as gear knob...

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    Sunroof off (all the dirt is from the tarp covering it) .. note the heater drying the interior! It really was a mess, so much so I didn't take photos of it haha Stripping relays to remove water (resealed with epoxy resin before refitting) .. Remounting electrics .. Clean dry carpet and...

    Clio Grande 1.2 Mk2 Ph1 upgrade project

    I'm new to the forums but have been a Clio owner for 2yrs now. My 'Adam' as I like to call him has proven to be a reliable cheap car and I've developed a deep attachment to him. Unfortunately (due to expecting a baby and being off work) money ran pretty short last November just before MOT was...
