DCMM Newbie

Wanted to say hi to everyone and thanks to Jen, I got my goodie pack today. Yeah now I can wear my shirt!
I'm just happy to get the chance to meet people who are as obsessed with their MINI as I am. There aren't very many MINIs(!!) in this area so people think I'm crazy. Especially, when I talk about my car like one would about their children, ours are the furry ones. Unfortunately, we do live a little further away and when my schedule allows(retail!) I am hoping we will be able to join in on some of the events coming up. My husbands sister is moving to Columbia,MD in the coming months, so I'm hoping that will also help put us up in that area more often.

By the way, I already need some help, where is the best spot for the DCMM window cling?

Kathy

The w most common places I see are:
bottom left-hand corner of rear window
bottom right-hand corner of driver's side rear window

best way to make sure you don't have bubbles and such in it:
Run the cling under some water on the side that will stick then smooth out like normal. The water provides a bit of lube to make it easier to squeeze out the big bubbles.

I like mine on the passenger side bottom of the windshield. Since I usually back my car in it makes it easy to spot. Also my car is tinted except that glass so its not hidden.

I've got mine in the bottom of the rear window on the passenger side (makes it easier for people in the next lane over to see it as I pass by them in the left-hand lane ).

We have all of our clings going down the passenger side windshield from top to bottom. Windows tinted to dark to see anything
