I hate to be the bearer of bad news but rust under the windscreen on an Mpi can be expensive (if done by a bodyshop), 9 times out of 10 the upper dash rail will be rotten aswell as the scuttle and the upper bulkhead may also need repairing, just thought i would pre warn you as i had a quote a few years ago to have a little bit of rust sorted out, it was £150 to start with until they took the windscreen out and it turned to £1000.

For some reason 97> minis rot like mad under the windscreen.

its a bit late but they're ok for off parts and that but they seem a bit pricey otherwise. BJ autobits/Harris motorsport in cranbourne in N/forest are much much better.

even thought its late i hope it helps
