Hey,

Does anyone know where I can get some smoked/black side indicators for my 08 plate mini one??

Thanks

I would also be interested to know this :) as a newbie to BMW Mini ownership I'm keen to know about such upgrades. Its seems there is far more info/interest for for first genration Minis. Also regarding bulbs whats the score with 'Canbus' ?

Cheers
Steve

Theres some pretty trick black LED units on ebay right now.

Failing that you can buy tinted film or spray paint cheaply for the black effect on your current units.

I had the same grief looking for clear/chrome ones. Loads really cheap for R50, not much for R55>

The LED units have a flylead that plugs into the MINIs bulbholder. No CANBUS issues or soldering needed

outmotoring has a pair that looks really good. A bit pricey though.
