Interior/Exterior Panic Button Decal
Placed my order this evening. Just traded my '06 MC in on a very gently used '08 MCS today. Ready to personalize! This is the perfect item to start with.
Thanks for offering these!

There's an alternative to a plastic doohicky in my album. No fly boy high tech stuff, it's the infantry model, LOL. BTW, I'm the fiend who started the Panic Button monster. I love it!!
OOPS, see page 4 of this thread.

(You should be getting a commission from Lyle, though!)So what (and where) is this infantry-version trigger thing? Looking at the interior shot in your gallery, I only see gages, the stuff on the dash, and of course that essential Panic button. Maybe I'll yank a joy stick off an old defunct game controller ... yeah.

So this was all YOUR idea? Yes, a fiend indeed. (You should be getting a commission from Lyle, though!)

Uff DA, guess I didn't explain that "OOPS" very well. The pic ain't in my gallery, it's in my post on page 4 of this thread. If Lyle want's to come across with 50% of the profits, I 'spose I might take it!
PS: Ain't no stink'in safety latch on the grunt model

These are fun! I'm gonna order when my car gets here...soon...
As I don't have my MINI yet and can't remember from the test drive, do all MINI's have this same round button on the glove box? I am getting a 2010 MCC. Thanks!
And what's the deal with the "climate controlled" glove box any way? Is it just as simple as it gets cold when you use AC and hot when you use heat or is their some way to specifically control it regardless of the outside temp? What if i don't want my candy to melt when it's cold and I am using the heater? Seriously, I'm not joking.
Nothing worse than melted chocolate I took from my kid's pumpkin!

Nothing worse than melted chocolate I took from my kid's pumpkin!I lined up the decal along the bottom of the button, then I used the hair dryer to help smooth it out as I rubbed the upper half with my finger. The vinyl sorta naturally wrinkles over the center rounded part, so I just continued to lightly push the wrinkles outward while using the hair dryer.
I hope that helps.

The decal doesn't wrap under the button at all. It's a near perfect fit on the top.
