New Glovebox...where?

Is minimania the only place that has new glove box assemblies? I've searched around and it seems they're the only place that carries new assemblies.

$200 isnt bad but I'd like to find it cheaper if I can...less money on **** like that = more money for fun **** like a DFIC and KW V3s

You can purchase any OEM part at any MINI dealer (go to the parts department). Some dealers such as Classic MINI (latest contact here) offer a discount. Also vendors such as Way Motor Works, Detroit Tuned, or others can order parts for you.

Look up part numbers at realoem.com or penskeparts.com, but any of the above will also help you find the correct part.

Jason at Classic is the go-to guy for OE parts, just ask for the NAM discount

Anyone know if the glove box door can be taken apart in order to fix the @#$%*^* handle? My glove box keeps opening when I go over a bump after removing and inspecting it, I found that I need a new handle. If I can not open it, where can I get a new aftermarket glove box? One that actually holds stuff....

I have used a/c pressure switch.

And the New glovebox goes for $172, and I have them in stock.

I hate dealing with AC...that's probably why idc the 190s is broken 2-80 works good enough in it but not in the mini for some reason. The woman won't ride with me without AC though and she's getting a lil pissed with the GB bashing her shins

Thanks for the help guys...way you've got PM
