Attempting to replace the electric fan that I failed to replace last time due to thw flaming stubborn bolts! I've soaked them in WD40 from the last attempt so going to try again and most likely fail lol. Plus other lil niggles that are bugging me such as the interior doesnt come on when I open the door, loose connection I think

Let's get the gang together and have a camp out, we should just cram as many mini's as we can onto your drive and all sleep in them for the next week or so, the look on their faces if they come back would be priceless. xD

From what I have heard, you'd be better off using normal paint, and primer/plastic primer. That stuff has the tendancy to peel off more easily than it should do.
Dec 19 2012 03:25 PM

minimaxie

Ah thanks for the reply dude, was thinking no one was going to bother lol. I was thinking the same thing, heard that the plasticote stuff has to be applied in quite dry conditions so it adheres better. Thanks man :)

brum,brum,mike

ahhhhhhhh i've seen them before and woundered where they come from. Look good, would suit a mini well.. i suppose you will have to drill ne holes in your door card and door to fit them?
Dec 02 2012 06:16 PM

minimaxie

They look a lot classier than the standard Mini ones IMO. Have been looking for a set for ages since seeing them on my mates magazine featured car. I believe they just use the standard holes in the door cards as they were also fitted to the Innocenti :)
