Headlight Protection Film: Clear: R50/2/3

The pieces fit very well and are high quality. However, if you want to install these, make sure you have a heat gun. A heat gun is ESSENTIAL for proper fit, because the lenses are curved and the plastic covers have to be stretched to fit properly. Once they are installed, it will take very close inspection to tell they are there. So far they have worked very well at keeping the rocks and scratches off the lenses.

I have just received my sunshades for my Mini Cooper, I am over the moon they fit like a glove which is perfect for protecting us from the Australian sun. Many thanks a great purchase will definitely be buying more goodies for my car.

Installed short shifter kit with no problems except kit did not come with 'o' ring for shifter shaft. Factory 'o' ring was too larger off of OEM shift lever. I would also recommend some good out door adhesive to reinstall dust cover on shift box, because some of the locking tabs may break off when removing. And with this short shifter kit there is no need to modify shifter box as some other products require you to leave dust cover off or purchase a drop cover to accommodate the longer shift lever. Thank you so much Out Motoring for another great product and customer service, Jon

Synopsis: Get lag out of your way!

SPRINT BOOSTER, a Plug-n-Play Performance Upgrade for your Model Year 2002 or later MINI. This is an upgrade that you can feel with normal everyday driving, not just on the track at redline like most other performance upgrades!

This works for all MINIs produced in or after 2002 models (specific to the automatic or manual transmission - see drop-down menu).

Most cars in the 21st century have replaced the more conventional throttle cable for an ECM (Electronic Control Module) that translates how hard the pedal is pushed into electronic signals in order to provide power to the wheels. The ETC (Electronic Throttle Control), which is also known as Drive-By-Wire, has the unfortunate downside of delayed response and subdued acceleration, which can create problems in certain situations such as up-hill starts, quick gear changes and overtaking.

Sprint-Booster overcomes this throttle response delay for your MINI by providing crisp, on-tap acceleration for whenever the driver demands it.

Results
* At low revs, the engine responds at approximately half the time in comparison to before.
* The delay time whilst accelerating in 3rd and 4th gear and the engine in the mid-range, is almost zero.
* Big differences in the higher rev range.
* Improved response for downshifts and safer overtaking.
* Overall safety and more fun on the road!

Sprint-Booster is a device that improves acceleration by continuously measuring and converting the digital signal provided by the ETC (Electronic Throttle Control) potentiometer, and providing the ECM (Electronic Control Module) with a new, faster response signal.

The design of SprintBooster allows for easy installation in all models, without the need to cut any wires or intervene in the automobile’s electronics (it does not affect other systems such as electronic injection, ABS, etc.). Installation is SIMPLE*:

1. Loosen the accelerator pedal module from the floorboard.
2. Unplug the harness from the accelerator module.
3. Plug in the Sprint Booster inline with the harness and accelerator module.
4. Re-install the accelerator module.
5. Happy Motoring!
