Do you have a metal coat hangar? Clep that round the white clip and if you have some tape cover it up so there is no snagging points.

Then pull!

Worth fitting the round washer thing first I think and smearing it with washing up liquid.

Pig of a job though

I tied mine to a braided brake hose and then put tape all round it, went straight through. Worked fine till the clutch went 2 weeks later

French engineering at it's finest.

When you say garden wire on a reel - is this the green ~3mm stuff? So same idea as the wire coat hanger? Just pull, eh?!

Good skills never struggling

Ok, so gave this another go following on from the suggestions. Now using a wire coat hanger. This was threaded through the white clip (which still has the string attached), surrounded with parcel tape, lubed up using some engine oil and then re-entry was attempted. I say attempted since I still can't get the bugger through the bulkhead, but I'm definitely closer than I was at the weekend

I'm now 6 hours into this job. Want to place bets as to the total if and when this job is finished?!

Cheers guys.

The saga continues... So this morning, after much heaving and some hoeing, I've got the little bugger of a white clip through the bulk head - about bloody time too!

However, since I wasn't in the footwell when the old clip disengaged (my gullible helper was), I'm not 100% sure how to get everything back together. Yes, I know, I'm a bit of a numpty...

Now I presumed that the white clip would just pull down and through a part of the pedal and clip round the brass bar on the pedal itself, but it doesn't look like there's enough slack - so either it goes somewhere else or I dunno...

Here's a picture of what it currently looks like in my footwell:



Red circle is for where the white clip is, green circle is for where I assumed I had to get it to, but there's no way it is, and believe me I've tried pulling quite hard. By the way, the other end of the clutch cable is currently free.

SO, where does the white clip go and how do I do it?

Cheers.

Yeah I think what you have circled in green is for a redundant 'sporty feel' spring that most people have taken off now.

As welshpug said it hooks on right at the top of the pedal, and undeneath it rather than on the side, have a feel about and I'm sure you'll find it (it might be a bit of a pain in the arse by the way).

Success at last. Cheers everyone for their advice. I nearly gave up a couple of times but persevered.

Congrats! It'll take you half the time if you ever have to do it again! .....That's the theory anyway!
