| Hey, I'm considering the purchase of a new mini cooper s and have a few questions, and yes I've tried searching extensivley already ... thanks in advance for your help. 1) CAn I please see some pictures of leatherette. The leather is too expensive but I wanted to see what the faux leather looks like before purchasing it. Is it as tightly fitting as the normal leather? 2) I've seen 2 different armrest solutions, 1 had a cellphone built in, the second had some storage and was screwed into the back cupholder. What else is out there for armrests? 3) I have an i-pod and it hooked up into my jetta very nicely with some adaptationa and a fair number of wires. The power source was a 12 volt in the trunk and I hooked the i-pod into the back of my HU with an adapter. Has anyone undertaken something like this with their mini yet? Also where can I mount the i-pod on the dash so it looks good and doesn't interfere with controls? Pictures are worth a thousand words ... thanks for your help. -mat |

| As for your leatherette question. If you're in the Toronto area the Southern Ontario Mini Club is meeting on the 26th. Web site: http://www.somc.on.ca You may want to join us If you have any questions. The leatherette fits just fine, it looks, smells, and feels like really leather. As for your other questions I can't help you. Might see you at the meet. Cheers, Charles BRG/W MCS |
