>>hey red,
>>
>>what did you find classier than the chrome rings?


keep tabs on my "no tach" thread in mini talk

 

>>Dual pod gauges in the steering wheel. (boost and oil)... :smile:

 

Since the visors are useless in the MINI I got a visor CD holder to hold my CD's. I got it at Best Buy, it holds 12 cds and has a nice little cell phone holder too.

Oh yeah I put some green lights in the footwells and the dome light, it looks really cool at night.

 

Floor mats, Euro parcel shelf and glove box organizer are must haves.

 

since space is a premium in the MINI, an ipod instead of a CD changer, and a digital camera, 'cos eventually we will all hound you for pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics picspics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics pics picspics

mini_street_racer..not everyone is rich enough to have a digi cam

Hey Red...The dual pod for $450...I know it comes with the gauges,but, Do you know if it comes with everything you need for installation (hardware etc)...and do you know, how hard is the install?

 

minispider--yeah it comes with everything pretty much
btw the install isnt easy..otherwise i would buy it already..cuz it looks really cool

check out the other thread..somewhere on this site..wehre hank..and a few other members including docsandi is trying to wire it up :smile:

 

>>you gotta show me urs!
I'll show them to you at our upcomming meet, which all MINI owners in So Cal should come to But they dont look too good in the day.

>>mini_street_racer..not everyone is rich enough to have a digi cam
Thats true...anyone wanna buy me one? Or give me their old unused one?

 

>>1. A "LightInSight" - probably the best $12.50 accessory you can find - helps you see redlights without craning your neck:

Thank you thank you thank you soooo much, jwtucker.
You just saved me from having to dig up my old Car and Driver magazines.

Anyone else tried it out? The MINIs, with such a forward roof, definitely needs something
like this to help us see the overhead traffic lights.

 

1. custom made color matching shift and brake boots;

2. color matching floor mats (just ordered from NMC)

The most important interior modification?

SCCA approved driving school.

Once you have this you can also transfer it to any other vehicle interior you find yourself in.

Ryan...you seem to be really into this "orderly lines" thing! Maybe we WANT anarchic melees when trying to get stuff?

If this thread had been posted a coupla weeks ago, I would have sold my old digicam here instead of ebay!

 

haha agro i am orderly about two things

getting DARXAR's black scoop...and someone loaning me a digi cam so i can take pics

 

1. Hot Pocket by TVA is a must (It should have been provided by the factory.)
2. UUC Shift **** (because it's cool and shifts better)
3. Cargo net (high G force cornering requires EVERYTHING to be tied down!)
4. Trim rings for the gauges (gives a less cheap feel to the interior)

i used to be biggest fans of these. but i think 150 bucks for 3 cheap looking flimsy rings are overpriced. if u can find a cheaper alternative, chroming the whole part instead of gluing on a little piece, will look a lot better

i am doing it next week, and will post pics in about 4 years when i have a digi cam

 

I added the gauge cluster from ProMini that holds an oil pressure and boost gauge. You can never have too much info feedback while driving. Tiniting your windows will also improve your stereo!

 

Thanks guys for all the GREAT ideas I just picked up my MINI yesterday! GORGEOUS! I'm going to change the following things for my loved ones.

Chrome ring
Floor mats
MP3

I have more on my list but I can only afford the above for now Anyway, darwinLLM how much did you pay for the mats? What color did you get? Are these nice? BTW how about the custom made boots? Sound very interesting. I'm interested to get sthg that is different from others. Coz it's boring to have sthg that everyone gets!
