Question Countryman Switches

Hello Everyone:

I'm trying to source some parts for Greasy's to install some off-road lights on the Gray Beastie.

I have three blanks available in the row of switches right below the row of toggles at the bottom of the center console (see attachement).

My question is, does anyone know of a source for the buttons/switches which fit into the blanks? In particular lighted switches.

Thanks!

Marlin

I have added VIP brackets & Hella 500 fogs from TDNparts. I wanted to use those switches as well just to keep it all oem. Looking at the MINI parts catalog, it appears the buttons are not sold individually. You have to buy the entire switch panel... and its not exactly cheap. There are, IIRC 4 different versions of the sw. panel depending on your original options.

:(

looking at sewell parts online, http://mini.sewellparts.com/oem-cata...60SX-2012.html

i see 8 variants of the switch, however only 4 have prices

the 4 are all priced at $194.48

i was able to buy 16" oem alloy rims for my cms all4 (for my winter tires) from ECS Tuning ... they apparently have access to euro only parts, so you may want to try them

Thank you, bmwr606, for the info!
Not only is Sewell in my bookmarks now for parts, but, I've asked them if there is a version of the switch cluster available with *all* of the switches enabled. I'll let you know what answer I get.

here you can see, what we have in Germany.

But what I have heart, these are not only switches/buttons, there is a electronic build in which goes direct to the ECU, so no real chance to use it for different stuff like lights or seat ejection
