I really like the look of the Mini Sport Quad Spotlight Kit

http://www.minisport.com/new-mini-shop/products/exterior-detailing/lighting/se-quad-spot-lamp-kit-product.html

but I just got the installation instructions from Mini Sport and it seems pretty complicated.

Does anyone know of a good auto electrician/bodyshop in Aberdeen that might be able to install them

Cheers

Scary stuff fitting spotlights to a new mini. I thought about it as the headlights are pretty poor but was put off by prevoius posts here and on Mini2.

You'll still have to go to the dealer no matter who fits them :( only the dealer can "turn" on the lights in the ECU

Yeah, thats what I kept reading on mini2 and on here but the instructions I got from mini sport dont mention it. I think they use a different pin on the loom, but not sure - anyone one tried it?

the brackets are easy to fit (no cutting)just drill and pop rivet:)

I'll have to read the instructions again, sure the ones I got involve some cutting. Do you fancy doing it for me John :)

I have only got the instructions at the mo - they were a lot cheaper than the lights themselves, but i'll bring them round when I get chance. Cheers

If you can fit them that would be brilliant - how much for the install? :)
