Hello,

I wish to change the front chrome grill to an after market Mini JCW grill on Mini Mayfair Cooper (base model 2010)

http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...rill_trim.html.

The only issue is that the I have the OEM Driving lights installed right now and I'm not sure if it is easyto remove the cables from the driving lights without tinkering with any other cabling inside the car. Also, would I have to cut some holes to pass existing OEM brackets?

The outmotoring guys sell the grill with the brackets as well, but I already have the brackets, so don't wanna pay for those again.

Not sure if anyone has replaced the front grill with driving lights. Any recommendation would be very helpful.

Cheers

 

you will have to in order:

un clip the harnesses
un screw the lights
pull the lights(gotta be clever managing the harness out but it can be done)
remove the grill.

 

Thanks. Where would I find the harness. Is it hidden the lights or inside the hood?

 

The Harness is the clip that connect the light wire to the electrical harness of the vehicle, should be behind the grill zip tied to the light mount. little black clip
