We just got a Countryman S for the weather up here in Alaska and have a question about the driving lights install. I have installed driving lights in our R56 and had to use a wind shield wiper puller (which was a huge pain in the butt) to be able to access the firewall on the drivers side. Does anyone know if I have to do the same thing for the Countryman? I haven't actually seen the car since my wife has is and she hasn't moved up here yet. Just want to mentally prepare my self for whats to come.

 

I was able to get mine off with just some penetrating lube (PB Blaster) and a flat head screw driver. I've had to remove it a few times, for various projects. After that first time its been easy each time.
