What is the best "Quality" chrome accessory kit for the interior? I have seen several on ebay and in catalogs at all different prices and what looks like the same kit, however there has to be differences. Thanks for the help...

 

It really depends on what you already have and what you want. I got the interior chrome package from MINI to start with. Then I added door lock pin surrounds, toggle rings, air vent caps & defroster rings. All from Mini Mania. I liked the toggle rings & air vent caps because they are metal. Unfortunately the air vent caps are kind of "clip on" and don't grab hold well enough to adjust the air flow so I glued them on with Elmers white. Just a dot worked fine. The defroster rings are adhesive backed so you want to put them on carefully so the curves match up. Not hard at all. Just be mindful. Last but not least the door lock pin surrounds were not good at all. I must have gotten a bad batch because they didn't sit flush on the door. The door is curved at that point. The surrounds where not and stuck out a little. Sure enough they got lost pretty quick. I called up Mini Mania to confirm what they had and they said the ones that I got were suppose to fit flush. So the next order will be sent back if they don't. Outside of that I really liked their finish even if I did pay the premium.

 

The best fitment quality will be if you order the OEM pieces. Classic MINI has them cheapest as far as I know thanks to your NAM discount. They are actually often cheaper than the individual pieces ordered from catalogs and ebay, which I wish I would have known before I bought a few from ebay and MINI Mania. The peices look fine and are the same material but do not fit as well as they just stick on top with adhesive.

The only way to get better than OEM quality chrome bits is if you spend more on the metal peices that I have only seen one european sites like this:

I came this close to buying one on ebay.
