Ordering European Tail Lights

Trying to order European tail lights with the Amber turn signals for my 06 Mini S with the Reverse lights in the lens.

The people I am in contact with are telling me that the European 07 and 06 lens are the same.

Can anyone confirm that this is true ?

NAM members in the UK can you voice some answers as this info is coming from UK dealerships and Parts Breakers.

Thanks.

I'm not sure what your question is.

I have them on my 06 R52 and purchased mine from NewMiniStuff in the UK: http://www.newministuff.com/new/shop...uctshow&id=149
You can also get them with white turn lens (used with an amber bulb): http://www.newministuff.com/new/shop...uctshow&id=184

I have no idea what you might be referring to regarding 07, unless you mean an 07 R52 convertible. The 07 R56 has a different and incompatible taillight from the 1st generation MINI.

It may be that the sales person was refering to the R52 2007 model.

I would guess they use the same tail light fixtures as you noted.

Thanks

They must have been talking about the 07 & 08 R52 MINI Convertible when he was referring to the 07 vs 06.

We have the Euro 05+ rear taillight amber top lens here:

Thanks and hope that helps.
