Bought myself a 2004 206cc 1.6 Tiptronic.
Needed a bit of work done but i enjoy working on cars so it didn't bother me Smile
1st thing i did when i picked it up was give a good clean and polish.
 

 

 


Paintwork still felt really rough though, Possibly never been polished.
So i decided to get the clay kit out while waiting for some parts to arrive.

 

 

 


Still need to touch up some chips etc but can't expect perfect paintwork on a car 9 years old.

Jobs to do.
Most important job was to replace the offside front spring as it had snapped at the top. This was Done 2 days ago and took 5 hours Sad but it's done now which is the important.
Also need to replace the passenger seat belt as it is damaged from being shut in the door i think.
And the Com2000 unit as someone has fitted a Hatchback one to my CC so it is missing the trip controls and the airbag system doesn't like it.

Mods to do.
Chrome door handles and hoops.
Replace all lights for chrome/crystal units
mesh grill
etc....

Your best ringing them up as they don't keep all available options of them in stock, they normally have to order them in for next day.

I've found with ECP site, they list every com unit for the 206 range when you enter your reg, you just need to look through the specs to find the right one. They even list the pre plex stalks for mine, which is odd since it's a multiplex.

You will get the airbag warning light displayed if the seatbelt fails the airbag start up check.

Also if the front airbags where deployed in the car it was removed from it will be skip fodder.

Airbag lights on already due to the wrong comm200 unit installed before i bought it. Also, the car it was removed from had no steering wheel but the passenger airbag was there and that was intact.

This is one of the reasons why we replaced the seat belt
 

The other was it kept jamming up every time you tried to use it.

When replacing it, i found this
 


That's how the bottom part was bolted to the car! Wall Bang
