Theres noe in production for the mini. You could buy some universal type things and adapt them....

oh right, i thought some1 would have made some up, it would be a gud idea. another reason is because whenever i look over at the passenger side you can't rly read the gauge properly, if you know what i mean.

Isn't the pillar on a mini a bit narrow and near the driver? You wouldn't want a gauge poking you in the face!

Well maybe not the closeness, but I'd be a little worried about mounting it strongly. It could be easily knocked in that position. Anythings possible, I was just being pessimistic!

cant wait
. i must point out though, I have had a look at these in the shop, and the 3 gauge ones for the pillars stick out around 6-7 inches on the bottom gauge. (if that makes sense)
