heres a daft question but i find it a bit strange that the clio 16v and williams clios can have the external oil pods but the 19s cant yet they both got the F16 engine the only differences i can see is that the clio 16v and 19 16v have a F7P 1764cc lump and williams has a F7R 1998cc lump
and the clios have a fuel gauge instead of fuel displayed in the comp, however sum 19s didnt even have a computer other than that they are the same so y cant we fit the external pods in, and if we can fit them ne ideas how

check if youve got the senders first. if not, buy them, and wire them to the gauges. shouldnt be too hard

the wiring is not there for it. It will also conflict with the existing dash. So you need to get the pod and the display. Then you need to swap the displays over as the clio casing is smaller.

You can piggy back into the wires but the dash does very strange things.

it fits? hmm thats strange, they normally rattle about in the dash, tried to sell clio owners 19 dashes beforte and they just don't fit.

Anyway The needle will not work unless you change the dash wiring as the fuel sender goes through the green plug not the black ones like the clios dash.
