So a bit of an update on the new thrones  First thing was to unbolt the rails from the new seats  Then try them in the Megane to see if they would fit (of course they didn't,that would have been too easy  ) So next thing was to attack them with the power tools!   With some careful calculations it was established that they would need to be widened by 30mm  So some proper spacers would be need and que my wonderful technical drawing  A mate who's a CNC operator knocked these up for me as a favor in his lunch hour  And in the words of Ace Ventura ''Like a Glove''   After that they were welded,painted and fitted to the car  Had to slightly elongate some of the mounting holes on the outside edge of the seats  And finally in!    |

So another week passes and im still spending money on the megane  Bought a quickshift and a new style rear badge. Can't wait to fit the quickshift as the current throw between gear changes is massive and can be compared to slinging my tiny gentleman's sausage up Katie Price's p**s flaps!  |

So the weekend has passed which means only one thing..........MORE PARTS FOR THE MEGANE!!!!!!  Todays goodies are as follows... Powerflex engine and gearbox kit  Silver Project adjustable top mounts  And some nice new decals for the rear quarter windows as the old ones had started to peel off  Also fitted the short shift on sunday which has made a massive difference in the throw in the gear change and also fitted the newer style 'RS' badge  |

So it's been an eventful month with the Megane.Finally got round to replacing the passenger side mirror after hitting a grouse and having the fat feathered twat rip my mirror clean off  Also to add insult to injury I had a stone fly up and crack my windscreen so I was £75 quid lighter after the delightful people at Autoglass popped round. So I've been wanting a few bits for my megane and in true man maths style I decided to buy another car   It's a leggy Renaultsport Megane DCI 175 but it was local and cheap so the bits I want will be free and I may even make some beer money if I'm lucky  |

So after decommissioning the DCI over the last 2 days I finally have a few bits I've wanted since buying the car.With my R26 being a 'Non-Lux' model it didn't have keyless entry or a leather rear bench. I'm not to bothered about the first bit the secondition one is something I wanted. So que the DCI....... Out with the crappy cloth  And in with the leathers   Also I'm on the hunt for more power so I've started buying bits which are 630cc deka injectors and a 2.75 inch decat  |
