I just picked up Q78 Qclips from my local Bike shop to adapt my existing Yakima rack to my MINI. The included instructions only included fitment measurements for a Ford ZX2. Nothing specific to a MINI. I did find the attachment below that lists the measurements but not the notes for the MINI application.

Does anyone have a PDF of this document (both sides) or a screen grab of both sides which would include the fitment notes for the MINI?

Thanks-

The mini application is on the bottom of your link.

 

Wait are you talking about these notes.

I got these from a Yakima rep.

Notes and Measurements (inches) for Mini Cooper
M1: 36 1/2 M2: 6 M3: 37 1/4 M4: 18
Notes:
61. The rubber door seals and/or trim may deform or be damaged under prolonged contact with any roof rack towers and/or clips. Remove rack when not in use.
95. Maximum load is bikes, skis, and/or a BasketCase.
100. Up to two bicycles may be carried on this application.
112. The sunroof should not be opened while the rack is installed. Remove rack when not in use.
113. The roof and/or trim is very soft. Do not overtighten or overload the rack.
165. Maximum allowable weight load is 75 lbs.

 

Exactly.

Thanks!

 

yup Glad I could Help

 

so... you really cant use the sunroof when the yakima rack is on the roof? :(

 

I've had my rack for over 10 years on my MCS with very few issues. I've had to had to make a few adjustments to the Yakima measurements over the years but I have always been able to open my sunroof. I had to move the towers beyond 18" inches apart (as you can see in the images, I don't think I have a pic of the sunroof actually open but it does open w/o any issues), but that's about it, I think. I've had bikes, surf boards, snowboards and now a load warrior basket it with no issues.
