Clio + Neons = Problem ( HELP )

yeah i had some to fit to my old cav, found it a bit difficult so decided they were s*it and sold them on for more than i paid, hope that helps a bit :)

Attaching a big sign saying 'I'm a wanker' to the top of the car will have the desired effect.

HTH.

Just screw them to the outside of your bumpers, this looks really cool. Then wire them in to your headlamp circuit, or indicators circuit. Put a sticker in your window stating 'All coppers are barstards' this should have the desired effect.

Fix 'em in with some no more nails or silicon of a colour of your choice.

Douglas

As Douglas says just glue them on, but remember to make sure the tube can't be seen that just looks crap.

Yes they should only be used when inspecting the underbody of the vehicle.

And it will also save the fixing/wiring problem.

Simply place the neons in your nearest bin. Simple - problem solved.

I thought that's what he was doing already... :)

Comfortable, well specced, safest car in its class (well it was the last time i checked) cheap to buy and run, long service intervals...blah blah yadda yadda...

They all have alloys as standard now, and theres soon to be a 182...

Bin them. They were a car custom scene fad in the 80's. Everyone realised they were s**te back then. Still, I suppose the next generation has to go through it all again eh?

I think some cars can pull them off - big high powered/mental Jap stuff like Supras and Skylines can get away with them as a finishing touch.

Not necessarily high powered, but longer lower cars (even Civic/Rover

Watched an old Supr 2NR TV yesterday on men and motors, had a very weird Civic Coupe at last years spring break nationals "Tuner bash".

With a modified Blackwidow bonnet that was tweaked to split into two, and open on each side from the centre on air struts, and a boot that lifted up flat on struts and modified hinges. That worked really well, with the lambo style door. Sounds hideous, but actually looked really well as a show car (not a daily driver by any means, but a demo of the builders ability).

Need for speed underground is ruining you child, put it away

I finished it and stuck with my 206 all the way through - NOTHING could beat it :)

except my mx5, the 206 was nearly as good,

No they don't. Apart from the 'sports' models such as the 172/182, Cup, v6 etc, alloys are only standard on the 'Dynamique' and 'Initiale' trim.

Fab little cars, comfortable, safe, good looking (subjective I know), good performance from the 16V engines (avoid the 8V 1.2 at all costs!), good fuel economy, loads of toys for the money, a good warranty and dealer network, excellent aftersales and /very/ flexible prices.

The only problem was the 5 week wait between ordering & picking up!

Mines the 1.4 16V Dynamiqe with a few options at 20% discount on book price :)

Yes, they do, after the facelift model comes out, which is slightly before or at the same time as the 182, they all have alloys and they look a bit different.

Well said sir, now come join the Renault Sports Cub :)
