Seats

Got my Clubman with the vinyl interior. Am interested if anyone has, or can point me to a source, for heated leather front seats in black and matching rear seats. Thoughts? Am I nuts?

Just make sure they come out of a car of the same year. early 07 seats will NOT work in an 08 car.

You will need to do a lot of research before you know exactly which ones will work.

Thank you. Looks like the kit fits pretty well. I will find them online and check 'em out.

Very nice, my brother (has a 2006 MCS) is thinking about re doing his seats, I'll send him the pic.

When I put leather into my 350Z I went to leatherseats.com. Really nice product, I think they are in Oklahoma or Texas and do installs if you're local. Takes about two weeks to get the product. Make sure that you order hog rings you will need them.

Katzkin supplies an excellent product and I have used them many times. A number of MINI dealers are installing the product on stock cars. The prices I have seen were $1400 retail.
