Don't think you'll find the cap among fasteners for the roof bow for a convertible top.
I think the cap comes with the outer door weatherstrip (http://www.realoem.com/bmw/partxref.do?part=51337071669). Hartge220 Jul 9th, 2012, 10:05 PM Give Thomas or Paul from 1320 Mini - Mini Parts - Mini Performance Parts (http://www.1320.co.uk/default.aspx) a call, they usually have quite an extensive stock of all parts, & they are forum sponsors too :wink: jimmyng Jul 10th, 2012, 08:38 PM thanks for all the options, but still no luck The Nun Jul 12th, 2012, 02:46 PM Probably easier in the end to just go and buy a whole new strip and fit that, they are around £20 for the door window seal, I wouldnt think the end cap is sold as a seperate item, in fact these days its wonder you dont have to buy a whole new door in this throw away society.

Agreed, just quote the part # from the Realoem (http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=RE91&mospid=51242&btnr=51_7755&hg=51&fg=10&hl=6)site to your local {or any other} MINI dealer & they'll even post it to you {usually for free}
Ive found my local dealer at Shrewsbury to be very helpful with sending out parts & are often much cheaper on items like this than independents on ebay. jimmyng Jul 13th, 2012, 09:02 PM anyone know where i can buy the whole trim?

Also some on ebay if you search for 'mini door trim' or 'mini window trim' | |
