Re: Front carpet clips

I had this when I bought my car, obscene price for a bit of plastic, I think they use the same clips in a few Nissan models, I got the dealer to supply them free, try a scrap yard.

Re: Cam Belt Aggravation

Will do, he said the water pump was not part of the kit, I said then I should have been told, I asked multiple times and was told yes, girl on the desk said £600 was cheap :shock: . Just had a look while its dry and my cam belt cover is very wobbly, I don't remember it being loose.
