well, in the U.S. at most dealerships tint is applied via an outside source. the dealer may offer some sort of warranty....if you had it installed at the dealership.

cool lights

In theory anything can be retrofitted, it's just a matter of the cost. It all depends on how the car is wired, some types of car come with a harness pre-wired for all options, then it's just a matter of plug 'n' play with the particular component. On the other hand, some types of cars are only wired for what is on the build sheet, in which case retrofitting would be a bit more work and a bit more £££ (i.e. if the chunk of the harness from "central control" to the mirrors is different for a car with just power mirrors vs a car with power and heated mirrors). I can't say I know which is the case with the MINI. I can say that heated mirrors and washer jets are handy in the winter, though, so I can see why you would want them...

Yes I'm still here Rob - just had nearly 2 weeks off work mind & didn't do much surfing at home over the holidays.

Sorry to hear about your tints did they sort it for you?
