Default 1.7 clutch change advice please

Hi, my clutch has started slipping every now and again so at a guess I'd say the slave cylinder is leaking? Would a Fiesta 1.2 clutch fit? I have one in the garage so would save me money if they are the same.

Thanks

unless your losing brake fluid then chances are your slave cylinder is fine, more like a worn pressure plate, when some mates did mine they found my flywheel was badly grooved which needed skimming, and I would say a 1.2 clutch wont fit

well if your brake fluid has not dropped I would bet the slave is fine
