As the title guys, I'm looking for a pair of facelift rear clusters for my 2002 R53 and the fog light too for the bumper if possible.

If anybody has a set or knows where I can get a set plase give me a shout.:thumbs up:

Typical! after I buy a set from ebay I get a chance of another 2 sets!:thud:

What is it they say about buses.:argh:

Anyway I now need the fog light that replaces the reverse light in the rear bumper if anybody has one of those kicking about?:popcorn:

The fog lamp is only about £20ish from MINI themselves...

Me being as tight as I am I thought I would see if anybody had one kicking about before I split a £20:blush: But I can't wait that long so just ordered it from David at J.C's for the princely sum of...............wait for it .............. £15.00.:yes nod:

Result. Cheers David.:thumbs up:

Hey man, Don't think there is much involved, straight swap for clusters then join fog light to reverse light and vice versa. Ryan k is doing this at the moment too. he found these guides:

I was supposed to do mine at the weekend but my lights never showed up.:ragin:.En route now tho!:thumbs up: Remember you also need the rear fog light to replace the reverse light or as a few have done get a red lamp for the reverse light! Fog light is about £15ish from J.C's.
