Just finished it up! My MINI is having body work done, so I dont have pics of them in the MINI. All in all, it took me about 1.5 hrs. :impatient The hardest part was fastening them. Unlike most headrests, MINI's dont have a bracket. Its just a rod in the shape of a "U." Something else that was hard was slicing through the leather. It just tore me apart! lol. Now onto the pics...

 

Oh, btw, one may appear crooked, but trust me; I can fix it!

 

Whoa- I can't believe you did that! Brave, very very brave.

 

wow thats awesome, good job

 

Thank you for the praise!

 

very sweet especially since it's a diy and done very clean. I however don't have that many people in the backseat of my mini at this point in my life. Did you do this for your kids or just for a little side of the good life while motoring in your mini?

 

I am actually only 15. I dont have any kids, and this is my mother's MINI. I have 3 little brothers that will sit back there to watch DVD's and play their games.

I probably wont sit back there too often, but I do like the "bling" effect!

 

wow, that's pretty cool.

 

So did you end up sacrificing the original headrests or get replacements?

 

I just used the origonal ones. I couldn't find a good enough deal on an extra pair to make it worth it.

 

I'm amazed your mom let you mod her car. Including the HAI.

 

lol

Dont forget the driving lights!

 

Where did you get the screens?

 

Good 'ol eBay. I got em at a steal. She was selling 3, I bought 2, someone else got the 3rd. If and when you get the screens, make sure the have the removable bracket. Also, it HAS to be 5'' or less. These 5's just fit.

 

Thanks for the info.

 

Any time.

 

I wanna see what they look like in the MINI! MORE PICS!

 

His MINI is in the body shop now, so no pics yet. I'm also curious to see them in the MINI.

Dont worry, you'll see em! Hopefully friday, maybe monday.

 

I can't believe your mom let you do that!!! I have a 15yo son and there's no way he's taking a knife to El Kabong!! That said, you did a great job, can't wait to see the final pics. Why's the MINI in the body shop?
