I'm looking to put a strut bar on my Cooper, but I have a UniChip box that sits on top of the ECU box. Is there a strut bar that has clearance to go over both the battery box and the additional heigth of a UniChip?

Thanks,

 

how far above the stock ECU does it sit?

 

about 1 inch I believe the promini one does but you need a low profile battery box cover

I have the cover and soon getting the bar I also have the chip I will let you know if I go this way

 

The UniChip unit rests right up against the left strut tower and stick up almost 1/4" above the top of the strut tower.

 

you can check my gallery, I have the M7 STB and Unichip, it fits perfectly under the STB without using anything to hold it.

 

Who has a low profile battery cover?
Whats the average cost on these?

 

promini.com

I think it was $50 or so

 

the umnitza strut bar does, my unichip fit perfectly under it...

 

Cooldaddy do you have a MC or MCS this is for a non-s they have a batterybox that may be in the way and a slightly lower hood profile

 

does the low profile battery cover fit over the oem sized battery? and does anyone make a brace for the justacooper that doesn't dimple the hood?

 

There are a number of bars that will not dimple our hoods. I can't think of them right now, but I think the OMP one works just fine.

 

oops didn't read that it was for a non-S. I have an MCS... sorry...

 

The low pro battery cover works fine with OEM battery
