What's the going rate these date to get them fitted to a Mini?
Do they really have to be fitted by the dealer or could I take them to a Local auto electrician to get them done.??

thats ****ing rediculous that the filter removes all these words. There are lots of streets in Scotland called C ockburn and lots of folk have it as their second name.

I'm sure i wouldn't have to advise that the fitment of a relay will be required as the drawn current would be too much for the headlamps as well :)

I've got a brand new set of Wipacs in my garage - £40 inc P&P to mainland UK if you are interested?
You'd have to buy brackets though - you can get them on eBay.

Fi, as always we ordered the car with 2 spots fitted, then added the other 2, which makes it much simpler to wire. It was a far different exercise for the R55 than for the R53 in respect of the brackets. With the R53 you just use a second set of brackets. With the R55 I had to design and weld a special bar to fit to the existing bolt points. then weld a spare set of BMW fittings to the bar. Do mini sport do an after market arrangement for the R56. It may be simpler.
I have a spare black grille if you want it. Don't have a spare black surround though.
