Need help locating trim items....
 
I'm looking for the top small trim pieces for the passanger and driver A-pillar. I had my widshield replaced and the drivers side must have fallen off. I really don't want to purchase the entire weather trim just for these small items.
I'm also looking for the covers to the mounting nut for both wipers arms, could not locate a part number for these in Penske Parts.

Thanks in advance.
Mark

If your windshield was done recently i'd insist they replace them.

I have seen sooo many of these cars with those pieces missing because of an unexperienced windshield installer breaking them.

You must remove them very precisely by sliding them forward about 1/4" THEN lifting them up.

I bet most guys just pry on them and break off the locking tabs.

I bet also if you pull on your passenger side one it's ready to fall off too......

I've been looking for this same piece for a while. A salvage yard may be our best bet.

Put those in your 'favorites' and don't loose them. A little web searching for MINI stuff will go a long way to increasing your motoring enjoyment.

Unfortunately you can only get that 3inch part with the entire rain rail. We a lot of times will get the whole rail and ship just the 3 inch part to customers to save them a huge amount on the shipping. Used ones are hard to get as they fall off or get damaged easily.
For the wiper covers we have several from wrecked cars we could sell you.

Any chance of scoring that trim piece off one of your wrecked vehicles? If not, how much would the new one be? Any discount if I tell you I spent over $600 at your shop within the last month? Thanks in advance.
