Virgin Mini 02 Owner

Hello Everyone
I`m the proud new owner of 02 silver Mini in mint condition with now 72000 miles on her.After taking it on a motoring & camping trip through the Shenadoah NP a couple of weeks ago I hastly pull on the glove box handle too quickly and she snapped off in my hand. So my question is does anyone have a idea where I can get a handle & parts for a 02 Mini glove without me selling my kidney to my BMW/Mini dealership here in Annapolis MD ????
Cheers;

Try a junk yard, maybe you will get lucky.

Hi Sharky's s BeachCooper,

Glad you had a nice spirited drive, but what a bummer on the glove box.

I would look at: www.realoem for your glove box part number, then call, or just call Classic MINI in Willoughby, Ohio for the cost of the part. (440) 585-9970 ask for parts. Since you are a NAM member they offer discounts on parts. Might be cheaper then you think. As Ben mentioned a junk yard might be a source as well, if you have one close by.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Tommy

You can't buy just the handle, you have to get the whole box. I have a good used one out of an 05, it has the lock in it, but you can just not lock it. Used one is $100
