little round "grills" in front bumper.....
I have a new gremlin : those little round grills (plugs) just below the head lights in the front bumper won't stay put! Are there driving lights that can be installed in lieu of these irritating little pieces of (s***) plastic? Twice I've attempted to get these things back where they belong,and all I managed to do was reduce my hands to hamburger on the various sharp edges that reside along the way.Anyone else have this prob? My car has quite enough rattles and squeeks ,without having to put up with this plug rattling around inside my bumper cover.
UPDATE:(OFF TOPIC) NEW WINDSHIELD STILL INTACT!

>>Those bottom holes are for the factory fog lights. You can get a factory kit for front and rear fogs or just check out one of your local auto parts stores and find a set you like.
Do you know off hand what the part # for the factory front fog lights is?Does this install add another toggle switch?that would make it all worth while!Can't have enough of those!

...which doesn't excuse MINI for providing a crappy plastic plug that doesn't stay put for anybody who doesn't want to pay for fog lights.

I have the fog lights so i don't really know what the issue is, however, nothing that a good healthy dose of Silicone won't fix, when it comes to body plugs and or panels......If you don't want the hassle of the lights and the switch etc., go get you a tube of clear automotive or boat (even better) type silicone, smear the living crap out of the pieces, install and wipe the excess off fast with a wet rag........end of story.....forever.....and if you repent on the lights, will come off easy as pie...... :smile:
