I may be in the minority, but you know the elevated cup holder that is on the right half of the dash (radio, climate control area)? Is that removable?

If I remember correctly, it's held on by two torx screws and a piece of adhesive. Remove the screws and then use dental floss to cut through the adhesive. Use GooGone or something similar to remove the adhesive residue.

Only for important stuff. I just went to the other side of the house for something-but couldn't remember what once I got there. At least I remembered my way back to the recliner.

Well, I ran out of the house when the sun came out, headed out 94 to get a couple pictures of the MCS finally. Got there and it started raining!

Well, I posted three of the pictures I took in my gallery (after it quit raining...killed time at a local bar till then).

This weekend is going to be nice, OR SO THEY SAY.

Hey Wolfee! You great looking, "car" you!

Yes the windows are tinted. It is a very light tint. Looks great in person. Not that obnoxious blacked out look.

It is just dark enough that if the passenger would lean over and give the driver a kiss, nobody would likely see it..........

Well, good morning! And you are correct, the Mini makes anyone look good!

Had a great time yesterday in mine. Just went bum'n around in it, and ended up at a little watering hole in Defiance. Everyone there loved the car. I think that many people see the Mini moving down the road but never have a chance to walk up and get in it. The few that looked mine over closely fell in love! Nobody could believe me when I I told them it was two years old!

Yup Not just saying that because it would be unwise of me to not agree

I get that response from folks when I tell them mine is over 5 years old, and has over 100k miles on it.

I learned long ago here on NAM to take all the good comments, because as sure as Wednesday comes after Tuesday, your gonna get some comments that make you red in the face, and not because your embarrassed.
