I dont think it does come apart, a fellow clubMINI member had his handle snap and had to replace the entire thing, from what he said they dont come apart.

Josh, did your car ended up going to Auto Salon?

Off topic, whinges about QSR: someone really should educate them what's taste...pink BMW/Subaru/RX-7 isn't exactly subtle or tasteful.

Glove box lid is a sealed unit and the only thing that comes as a 'saparate item' is the lock tumbler according to BMW.
My lock catch snapped off and whole unit was just removed and chucked away.
I guess that's why MINI is up the ladder on price.... expensive warranty work when they DO go wrong....

First it was Queen St Smash Repairs...then they called themselves Queen Street Racing....all sorts of weird cars sprayed in pink.

True, one of Yashio Factory's S15 is in pink, could think of another 2-3 D1 cars are drapped in pink as well. JDM is overrated anyway, just like someone want their MCS to be entirely fitted with JCW parts only.

thanks for all the replys guys !!! **** **** **** im spewin its one piece !! oh well ill have to think of somthin else to do with it !!

Mini Freak :hopefully the leather and snake skin covers everything that can be coverd i just gave my car to the trimmer and said make me smile when i come back !!

MiniFr34k yep since QSR everyone wants to retrim their interior snake skin. - this is true as dude !! they have sparked a new trend although this is only massive in sydney especially the show car scene ! at the summernats this year the car that won best outright interior which is the biggest and best award to get for you trim was an orange XF falcon with beige leather and caramel and brown snake skin it was pure magic !! im hoping to just be the first in victoria , Like my mini the i was first in australia im pretty sure with 19 x 8 inch wheels !! and my bodykit to !!

n00b Josh, did your car ended up going to Auto Salon?

Off topic, whinges about QSR: someone really should educate them what's taste...pink BMW/Subaru/RX-7 isn't exactly subtle or tasteful. - unfortunantly no it didnt me and my trimmer got stuffed around with the sub boxs we are going to use and didnt get them in time so i had to cancel and AUDIOBAHN were not happy especially having to fill my cars spot on the trade stand at the show !!


i personally love the QSR boys ! that M3 is actually a reall M3 it has a crazy rotary turbo motor and runs like 7 sec quarter mile and they compete in show and shine events with cos it has a mad trim and engine bay and they win **** most of the time !! now the time craftsmanship money and plain old man hours on the car would be phenominal also including the RX7 that things has 20's all round and a $12,000 candy apple pink paint job with a rotary turbo 10 second street driven daily package and a beatiful bone colour leather re-trim !! i personally think the QSR guys are awesome!!

thanks alot everyone for all the replys and help i guess ill just have to figure out some other way to modify it !!!


hahaha now im thinking YDRX-7

SEE YA GUYS !!! THANKS AGAIN
