the iPhone thing wasn't really any use to me, not working in the 406 was the biggest downside, so i sent it back.
My cousin has just got himself a damaged clio a 2008 1.5 dci only hit on the side door, although it triggered the airbag on the opposite passenger side :|, the windscreen broke and it needs new pretensioners. Anyhow all a bit of craic putting it back together, and not a bad car the current clio, better than my mk2. But it needs a fault code reader to turn off an airbag light. Though i think that clip looks like the best job for renaults, given my cousin has 3, my mum has one and now my dad is considering downsizing to a 1.5 clio a clip machine thing wouldn't be such a bad thing to have

If you are going down that route, I would highly recommend the RSTuner. I see support has been added for many non-RS models like DCi etc. It was primarily developed to remap Renaultsport ECU's but has evolved to do a lot more, fault codes, ABS and airbag diagnostics and all sorts of other clever stuff. Henk, the guy that has produced the RSTuner and written the maps, has an excellent reputation. I've always found him very helpful when emailing for help.
