Has anyone fitted the false boot floor to a car that came without?

I understand i'll need the boot floor, both side panels and the fittings but i'm unsure if the holes are behind the side trims to screw the plastic fittings into. I'd expect them to be there as i guess all bodyshells will be made the same at the factory but would like to know before i buy the parts




Thanks

 

I didn't get the Mini version but recall reading posts here of people who did the retrofit.

 

You are talking about the storage package?

Excellent, just what i was looking for

I didn't realise so many parts were needed, i'm guessing i don't need the seat latches if i'm not intending to prop the floor up at a 90 degree angle?
I'm thinking of the following
Boot floor
side panels
side panel plastic brackets for floor to sit on (front and rear)
side panel catches to hold the floor open

Will this be enough?

Thanks

 

Welcome. yep you will those unless you dont intend to prop.

 

Looking at the pics of the catch that holds the floor up, does it have to be fitted to the adjustable hinges or does it fit onto the standard hinge? not quite clear how it fixes as i thought it was fitted to the side panel?

 

Well installed the parts today and can confirm the catch to hold the boot floor up does need fitting to the adjustable hinge (part number7317712) - it is held in place through the side panel when the cover is fitted but not so securely

Also to note when fitted there are holes in the floor supports and side panels where the tie-down rings go - (part number - 51477271174 (X4) tie down rings and P/N 51477274764 covers)
