Other options to consider:

Use an HK amp from a BMW E46 (easier to find, cheaper): https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...amp-works.html

Possible repair (requires electronics expertise): http://www.gethypoxic.com/reviews-te...-mini-amp.html

Ive got one... No clue if it works or not, it was bypassed when I bought my first MINI, and pulled out of there 7 years ago! Just been sitting in the garage on a bench since...

Thanks rkw, I'll do some reading but fixing the amp IF doable could be interesting.

I pay shipping and Voilà? Assuming the amp was bypass probably because it has failed under the previous owner.

Honestly it probably still works. The girl who owned that Cooper before me, had a lot of audio upgrades done... DVD player, iPOD hookup that I wish I would have kept, and Boston Acoustics speakers... Any time you upgrade head unit with the Harmon Cardboard system, the amp needs to be bypassed because it only works with the HK head unit.
I will find it sometime this week, if you want it.

Do you still have the amp? I've been driving around for almost a year with no radio and I'm going to lose it!
