i had the arch's a few weeks now and after one of the old front ones came off i decided to fit them. Whilst i was at it i fitted a Lucas Reversing lamp.

Here are some pictures

i have one of those reverse lamps, but dont have the other reverse lights like you, as i have mk2 rear lenses

chrome trim and some MK2 lenses next

Can you fit mk2 lenses straight on? I was under the impression you had to change the whole light unit?

Yeah got to change the whole light unit but thats easy!!

I've been told they are a straight swap - you just have to do something with the reverse light unit. Best to make sure though.

Deff need some MK2 lenses!

Thanks for the comments! I will have some MK2 lights very soon! My dads mate has some for me!

I would like a MK2 boot as well.

Only other thing i have done to the car is put Gmax suspension on it.

Next i will be getting a bucket seat for me. I take my mum to work every day so i don't want her to struggle in and out so i am just going to get a drivers one. I have seat extenders but I still get really bad cramp in my right foot. It becomes unbearable so hopefully a bucket seat will put me back more and lower.

very nice mini you have

You have to change the whole light unit but don't need to mod the car at all. The plastic lenses don't just swap straight over unfortunatly.
