How to buy the new Harman Kardon A pillar?

How to buy the new Harman Kardon A pillar (found the hifi on allminiparts.com but not the harman kardon)?
For a custom tweeter installation (for a car without the hi-fi system).
Anyone?

The Apiller comes in tow varieties one without a tweeter and one with a tweeter,. used on the HiFi and Harmon Kardon.

So if you need a-pillars for tweeters just order the ones for the HiFi.

I got my MINI A-pillars from pelicanparts.com. Found the part number from realoem.com and got both left and right black A-pillars for just over 80 shipped. Great service from pelican. They sent me two left pillars and were very quick to sent me the right one. Remember there is a black and grey color A-pillar.

Part no. of the A-Pillars? I think the A-Pillars are the same as in the old hi-fi system.
Did you buy the tweeters as well so the HK logo comes with the tweeters?

Just in the past week or so they have come out with the A-Pillar with al the extra goodies already attached. Although you may still have some problems getting them here in the USA. Just keep on the dealer about the fact that they can be purchased in Europe so they should be able to get them here.

Part numbers are as follows.

51437236259 - LH HK black a pillar inc tweeter
51437236260 - RH HK black a pillar inc tweeter
65139169690 - HK door mid range
65139194841 - HK door woofer

Well worth installing this lot, these are the HK part numbers I posted up on a different thread which are UK part numbers but will be the same worldwide

What about the non-black ones without the tweeters?
I just need the A-Pillars (for the tweeters I posted above).

Which one will fit better the above tweeter, the hi-fi A-Pillar (which is round and I can fit mine on the outside?) or the Harman Kardon?
