Boy, I don't know if this will help or not... but check out these pics off www.mini2.com of their tour of the MINI plant a couple weeks back:

http://www.mini2.com/article398-seco...ford-tour.html

About half way down there are some R56 dash pics showing wood trim.

If your looking for a cabrio, though, I would assume that it was (and for 2007 will be) a R53 car.

Thanks Randy, I still can't find the photos, it was a red Cabrio.Real nice shots with the top open, I was on a fast computer last nite. I should have wrote the address down as I did not want to log on. I want a molded dash, the flat pcs look cheap, is the one from Mini the only moulded wood dsah available? Whats it cost $1000 ?

LB, I love your MINI interior ...I lust after a wood dash myself, almost to the point of ordering a new MINI!

(luckily, I realized I'm not ready to part with my 02 MCS and many mods...)

JPMM, I know $1000 is less to spend than buying a new car, but I want a wood steering wheel and wood door panels as well...I'd like to really be able to customize...
So keep us updated on what you find and what you decide!

The original owner had it installed by the dealer, Classic Mini in Mentor Ohio, prior to delivery.
