Doesn't the gtt one have a different speedo sender or are they swappable?

I don't want it anyway

they are swappable.

Its a plug in leccy sender like the new cars use, pull the sender out and its a normal box again.

aye

but accoridng to stanny poo, the megane box won't go in a clio due to stud location for the mount on the box.

So 19, aye, clio, naw!

tbh it can and will fit the clio.

either use the 19's front box mount or use the megane/laguna bracket as they both stick out further than the clios so it should fit then.

Legendary film is Tremors

"I despatched the second wave with a combination of small arms fire and hand-to-hand combat techniques" (Or something like that anyway)
