Welcome to the fanatics club ... you are very much not alone in ordering stuff for a yet-to-be-built MINI.
I had a (then-unavailable-in-USA) six switch toggle panel and euro shelf ready for GBMINI#2 a couple months before it was built - of course both were installed before the car left the dealership

Well, you guys monitoring this thread will be the first to know that ...
Parts are on order for another batch of MINI circuits!
I need to build an automated tester so the contract manufacturer can do everything and I can be un-involved in the production.
At the moment, discussions are ongoing with the aftermarket parts company and hopefully we will have an arrangement soon so the circuits can be sold to you all.
Sticking points for now include the install instructions - if I am un-involved, then there are no instructions unless (a) the seller (aftermarket MINI company) sorts it out or (b) the buyer downloads and prints their own.
If the discussions don't work out, there are a couple of other companies that have expressed interest - somehow we should find a company prepared to sell this circuit to you!
(note: manufacture will take at least six weeks!)

That is good to hear. I am actually in the process of deciding whether or not to build my own (with help). I guess knowing if it worked on the 06 would be good, but my guess is that it'll work on the 06 just as well as on the 05.
Now, hearing this I I may wait until we get some idea of future pricing. I already know I'll like the auto-up a lot. I got the convienence pack so I don't need the garage door opener, and the track mode mod is not that important to me either thoug, so making my own seems like a possibly viable alternative.

Just installed mine on my 06 MCS this Sunday. Works fine. I only have the auto-up function, not the DSC disable. I ordered mine several months ago, even before I had the car, just hadn't gotten around to installing it.

. I hope the fog light option will be an "option" cause I would like them to turn on when the headlights go on.

Dolmangar / Mike - excellent! Thank you so much for posting that news about the '06; I had no reason to suspect any issue but no confirmation either till then.
RoyalCooper - the garage control feature will not be a part of any future MINI circuit; I always had to custom make them and that won't be happening now; sorry.
FlynHawaiian - no fog control either.
