JCW Leather Dash for 2003 Cooper S?

Thinking about getting a low mileage 2003 Cooper S. Anyone know if there's a JCW leather dash kit that would fit that model year?

I'm new to the mini scene and trying to get up to date on the various changes for the gen 1 cars

thanks!

Not sure, my 2005 Cooper S has Leather on the top of the dash, but not all over like the JCW.

Anyone?

No JCW Leather dash for the five piece dash which you MINI has. There is a three peice JCW leather dash. On the five piece the dash is part of the airbag system, so I dont think you could convert to the three piece. The Center section of the kit is used on both pre and post 7/2004 , but cant be bought on its own.

Five piece pre 7/2004.




Three peiece 7/2004+

The JCW Leather matching down tubes are NLA now also.


The Carbon fiber 5 piece & 3 peice dash is NLA also.

Maybe you would like the 5 piece wood dash or a different color ?

There is a company in Britain called Top Gaiters that is an ebay store that has the 5pc kits available as well as full leather wrap kits for the dash board. This is a kit though which means that the leather is all sewn together but will need to be glued to your existing dash pieces. That means you may want to take it to an upholstery shop for installation if you aren't familiar or comfortable with using something like landau top adhesive in a glue gun or some really strong spray adhesive.
Not to detract at one of our most helpful and appreciated vendors, ECS Tuning, but since they don't carry the proper BMW part as it was never made, I feel it okay to point your head in this direction.
