Hi Doc,

According to the "MINI ONE. MINI COOPER. MINI COOPER S AND MINI ACCESSORIES PRICE LIST 2002" the Visibility Package is:
£144.68 + £25.32(VAT) = £170.00

That's the price for factory-fitment, but if you have it fitted at the dealer later that would incur an extra labour cost I guess.

For those that don't know, the Visibility Package (in the UK) comprises of the following:

a). Heated windscreen
Great feature for 4 months a year, annoying wires in the window for 12 months.

b). Rain Sensor
Great idea, but no competition for RAIN-X.

c). Automatic Dipping Interior Rear View Mirror.
My E36 318SE BMW worked a treat, my newer E46 318SE BMW however didn't seem to work at all well and was more trouble than it was worth in the end.

Personally I'd save my money and a few extra kilo's of electronics and heavier glass and be happy
