MC Promini Intake, 6500K HID conversion kit, Cup Holders

I will be taking delivery of a 2005 MCSa car in just over a month and have some goodies to offload.

First off is a MC BMP/Promini Air Intake. I have used it about 9k miles and its in great shape. There is some scratches on the heatsheild but nothing some buffing could probaly get out. I would like $90 OBO Sale Pending

I also have a about month old 6500K HID conversion kit. More info here. They will pop right into any car that uses a H7 headlight housing. Not only the MINI but any other car with the H7 housing. All wiring, bulbs and harness are included. I am asking $200 OBO

Cupholders:

I have a older style cup holder. The one that attaches to the bottom of the down tubes. Still taking offers

I also have a lightly used 05 cup holder with the anthracite trim peice. I have 2 of these. 1 sold. 1 left.

Also, anyone want some few month old used H7 Silvania SilverStar headlight bulbs? I just thought I'd ask. Would let go for like $5-10 a set. There not blown. I just pulled them out when I put in the HIDs. I will put in the stock bulbs when the HIDs come out.

What did you like about the Promini air intake? Any noticeable performance gains? I assume it houses a cleanable filter similar to a K&N, correct? Is it very loud? Thanks

Wow, all that fuss about installing HIDS and you are getting rid of the car already! Anyway, have fun with your new MCSa.

I have a friend who uses the H7 bulbs in his car. If you hold them until the morning I can ask him to see if he's interested in a spare set.

Gabe's review is almost 100% inline with what I think. Also he has a video so you can hear it. But pretty much you notice the intake from 2500rpm on up.

As for the filter being replacable I don't remember if they said to clean it every 10k or replace. I'd have to ask/call someone on that.

Yah..well what can I say. Let me know on the bulbs.

Maybe anyone out there would like to see the difference on the cheap would be interested?? I had them in my low and high beams.

How about $90 + 5 to help me with shipping costs. According to USPS Priority Mail (I prefer to use) is about $12 to AZ. I will eat most of the cost if you will pickup a few of it.:smile:

Thanks, I just checked with my friend and he's going back to oem the next time.

I'll check around and see if anyone else might need a set..if you don't sell them before that.
