I did the same with Calabasas Mini and got the same wonderful loving response. i ordered from PatrickMini in Ill., got their name off Craigslist. John at PatrickMini was the BEST. Ordered it the last day of December and will have it the end of February. NO MARKUP. Thats Service. Car is already built and waiting for a boat.[/QUOTE]

I would highly recommend the Seven Dash. It would go great with your black exterior.

Thanks

I wanted the cold weather since I will be driving with the top down in the evening amd early morning, and I want the heated seats. I got the ipod adapter and security, in fact there isn't much I didn't get except the navigation. MA advised against it.
