I think you can. You can certainly buy the slats separately.

Oh, I also passed on some MINI2.com stickers to Andrew, Mary and Tux today. If I can get my A into G I'll try and prep some more for myself and mrs minigolf to take to our respective clubMINI launches in WA and NSW.

Time to get weeding (I'll confess that when you first mentioned it yesterday, I though you meant the garden variety too ) Thanks again for the stickers . This is the kind of mod that I like, nice and easy

Still gardening I see....!
The stickers are really great, thank you. We (what am I on about, Kyle will) have to do a wash and clean before putting the stickers on. We were at Rolfe today and picked up some MINI tattoos. Will have them with us on Sunday. Standard apply to wet skin tats.

Andrew, the grill looks really great. Well done and don't forget the end of year performance appraisal for your 'staff'.

Daniel,

I was lucky enough to have had the Aux input made for me and installed for nics!! by one of our MINI brothers down here in Melbourne.

In hindsight it was a very easy job and if you are half handy with basic electrics I am sure you could do it for yourself.... unfortunateley in my case I am absoloutely useless with that kind of stuff.

Hey there, I think Alta is telling porkys. I spoke to the people at Eibach Australia about this rebranding and they claim that its not done usually and if so only to TUV (i.e. German based) companies such as VW or Hartge/ Alpina etc.
My eibachs are black with little logos.
Did you go to Alta in Rushcutters bay or did you order form OS? Nice one anyway

*little bit of venting frustration. Spoke to the H-sport supplier who has alot of my cash and yet Im still having to wait until Early April till my order can be 'filled'. Rang eibach about their bars, hows this.......$950 for non-adjustable 19mm rear/ 22mm front and an 8 week delivery time.....get stuffed.*

Alta aint sayin nutin'

The word on the street is that this was the case... I have heard that the Alpina ones are Eibachs too. Dont know if there is any truth in that.

Shame to hear about your H Sport issues
