It's your own darn fault that she took your toy! I'm smart about it and make sure to enter both my VIN# and my wife's so that we'll each get the toys and won't have to share. . .

You'd better go order "her's" now so that you will have one for yourself!

Just call MINI and ask for your box. We only received one box so I called them and it turned out that they had my old address. After a few weeks, I received my black box and joined in the fun too. I bet they'll do the same for you too.

I was surprised at how nicely it installs for a clean look. They did a good job figuring out how to attach it so that it curves correctly with the panel.

I like to refer to it as a push-button switch.

Same here... and I have to say it is in the perfect location.. makes up for my mistake of not ordering the right goodies to get a full toggle panel.

I love the new plate, mine came yesterday as well!

There is no part number. It's something that (for now anyway) is only available through this promotion.

They certainly did! I was a little concerned about how they would get something to work nicely without it being a sticker.

Anyone know where I can get a button I can put in my blank toggle switch area? (I was thinking of red paint, but a button would be cooler.)

Just ordered mine - do they really take 4-6 weeks? I want oils slicks now!

As for the button - Elmer's glue and an eraser head? I'm sure the glue would come off cleanly when you're over it. Just don't let your friends touch

Is anyone else having the same problem I am having with the photon blasters?

Every time I try to use them, the passenger side window rolls down.
