I signed up for Helix MINISPORTS email newsletter last week. This Tuesday, the day before my MINI was born, I got my first edition of the newsletter. Stuff on sale for 10% off, installation 20% off. I placed my order for the clear tail lamps today, and Eric of Helix said he'll extend the 20% off installation discount if my MINI doesn't make it by the time the sale ends (Dec. 20th). The whole deal with cost around $300. I'm so happy, I'm so excited, I'm beside myself.

That's great news! I have been debating on whether or not to get clear taillights for my MINI.....I am still undecided, but that is REALLY good information to know just in case I decide in the very near future to do it!

I also added the clear tail lights to my dark grey cooper S - but be AWARE - I live in California and got stopped twice by the police (coppers) as I had no "red reflector". Was not DOT approved. They tried to write me a "get fixed ticket"
So you can buy a relector kit (about $35) that you add to the bumper. The kit wants you to drill holes in the bumper. bit I just stuck on the reflectors - I will post a picture later. Looks good - havn't been stopped by the coppers !!

I am actually going to wait and see if they come out with something a little less clear before I make my final decision on what I am going to do.....maybe smoked taillights, but not those covers that you can get....

I would really like something for the MINI like the Hella Smoked tails for the Jetta. Hella makes a very nice product. I know MINI Madness sells a kit to tint your taillights, but the $99 they want for a sheet of tint (tint!?!?!) is ludicrous.
