ok heres the deal, my standard clio airbox didn't fit right, left huge gap where the bolt wouldn't do up on the bulkhead side of the seal on the throttle body! the box itdself was fouling against the two or at least one of the what look to me to be sensors bolted into the side of the engine block! please advise on what they are, should they be there and if i can get rid of em etc?!!! cuz its winding me up them being there!!

That head is from a 19 16v, hence the different location of the sensors.
You can remove them if your not using them (should be in thermostat housing on clio) but just make sure you plug the holes up with something.
