Hey,

I am thinking of fitting some spotlights to the front of our mini one , now wiring is not a problem for me , its the drilling bit that concerns me! i can't seem to find a walkthrough on fitting these so i am on here to ask someone that has done this how easy it is to do the drilling part to the bonnet.

Thanks!

I fitted some gloss black spotlights to mine, was very easy infact! Once you've got the bracket through the grille, it should line up with the three screw holes, hold the bracket in place and drill through the three holes, took me about 5 minutes to attach both spotlights and about a further 15 minutes to do the wiring (10 mins of which was tidying it up to hide the wires). Good luck! Judging by your name and avatar, are you also 18 with an R50 PS One? :D

Lol lol lol , god if only! Let's just say I am not far from 18 + vat lol

My concern was drilling straight through the bonnet! I assume when you mean put the bracket through then you just drill some pilot holes so the bracket lines up and that there is not any actuall specific place to drill the bonnet?
