Your Mini Looks GREAT ! Wow what a transformation; Looks Mean ! ! !

If I may ask ( I want to install the same lights ) how did you wire the Hella's ?

Please send me a PM with how you did it so I don't wire it incorrectly. As much detail as possible.

Thanks much !

NOOOOO DON'T SELL IT!!! Still one of my favorite MINI's for sure! This was a very fun build to follow, It makes me regret not doing a build thread for my MINI and documenting everything that way...

@MINIKAR : Wiring the Hella's is easy, just run a wire up from the battery through the interior to the dash, you can put the relay under the dash too and there is a nice screw under there that works for grounding, just to the left of the steering wheel. Follow the wiring diagram that HELLA Provides and be sure to put the CPD (fuse) closest to the power source (battery) in the circuit. There is a grommet at the firewall near the brake fluid resevoir that you can run the wire out to the lights to. Feel free to PM Me if you have any questions.

Which seats did you get from F1Spec? Looks like maybe type 4 or 5? I was actually just looking to get one or two for my R53, I'm only about a hour away from the main F1Spec shop. Let me know whenever you can! much appreciated!

Dude you just necroed a thread in which the author hasn't posted in over 3 years. He hasn't even logged into this forum in almost a year.
