Same. I've not had my options fixed in the last 2 trips to the dealer.

Really? So the LED will blink when the doors are locked even before you take it in for activation?

Yup. I noticed that two. Had the stalk on for about a week before activating, and it did blink after the doors were locked.

Sponsor of this website Classic MINI, find them in the Vendors section and ask for the parts department. Then ask them for the "NAM Discount".

Picked up my alarm parts and the light stalk from Morristown MINI - great price, couple hundred bucks for the lot). Too cold to put it in yet.

Installing the new stalk yourself is no problem. Have you tried Classic Auto Campus? 440-205-6404

NO wonder i couldnt find the tilt sensor wiring in the rear trunk compartment... i thought i had to start cutting the wireharness open. Also i was questioning why the dealer did not send me the tilt sensor in the 06 Factory alarm kit.

This clears everything up. thanks all!
