Center Console Organizer Kit: R50/3
I'm happy with this product, nice little upgrade. Some installation tips: you need a hexagonal head or allen key to remove the single screw holding the old panel in place. With determination and patience you *can* get the product in place. Just don't be afraid to bend it. But it's not easy though, it does not slip right in. The other option is to do what John (reviewer before me) suggests.

I'm new to MINIs, but so far outmotoring.com has been my go-to source. Aaron has been more then helpful on several occasions. I'll continue to give him my business and would recommend anyone do the same.

Both of the front headlight trims came with one having the letter "A" and one having the letter "B" but does not instruct on which one is left and right side. Both pieces are almost identical and fit nearly the same on either headlight trim. I feel that there should be some sort of instruction on which one goes on the left or right side.

I recently installed the aftermarket chrome interior package on my Mini 2 door coupe S. Prior to installation the carbon black interior felt dark and somewhat cheap. After installation the interior came alive. It appears much richer and bright and almost a different interior. It takes patience to install all of the pieces but it is time well spent. Highly recommended.

Synopsis: R series explored
The Convertible MINI was the first MINI Cooper model to be released in base model and S model versions under the same R series designation.

R52
R52 S

In 2004, MINI released a convertible version of the re-introduced MINI. Also a Generation 1, the MINI Cooper Convertible has two doors and front and rear seats. However, the rear of the vehicle forsakes the hatchback of the Hardtop MINI, replacing it with a drop down 'tailgate' that is reminiscent of the classic Mini. It incorporates similarly prominent external hinges. With the roof in the closed position, the rear roof section and luggage shelf can be raised with two handles, semi-tailgate style, to access the luggage space easier.
