Does anyone know how to remove the door lock pins? Do they just unscrew like most cars as I have tried that but had no luck...

Monsta, not more chrome I thought you were cured.

You planning on getting the pins with the built LED's for the alarm

Monsta, with all that chrome, when are you having the second (chrome) axle fitted - wow a Pink Panther six wheeler

Smiffy, yes I was thinking of getting those LED door pins but otherwise something chromed.

Anyone got an answer to my question?!

I'm gonna take a wild guess but from what I remember when I had the door card off for my front speakers, they looked like they were probably glued on. If you're not too bothered about keeping them in a good condition, you could probably attack the black bits with a knife until it comes off

Good one Monsta

The door pins do screw on and off.
However, they are moulded into a Z shape so you will not be able to remove them without taking off the door case!!

P.s
This also means that because of the position of the locking pin rod, third party pins will not just fit on without reworking the rod. Best to wait for MINI specific third party pins to arrive.
