Just thought I would say hi!

New to Mini2, and infact the Mini World!

I don't own one but worked with the manufacturers of the R56 cockpit (Intier/Magna), it was part of my work placement for University!!!

Spent the last 12 months working along side the team to develop electrical test equipment for their production line... Pretty much know the cockpit inside out electrically (more than most of the company in fact), so if you want any info... just ask!

... other than that im 22, go to Stafford University reading Internet Technology BSc (HONS) and my home town is Redditch...

Nice to meet you all!

Nick

Welcome to Mini2 Nick.....

So, come on then. Out with the goss about the R56 cockpit

Nick_Wilkes · Oct 2nd, 2006, 12:00 AM

Wouldnt know where to start... or even where I stand on confidentiality.

I guess you can throw some questions and I will try to answer them as well as I can.
Dont really know a lot about the vehicle overall, but i know all the different types of interior electronically and how and what it connects to on the rest of the vehicle. The options almost seem endless!
