Does anyone know if these are still available?



Both mine are wrecked unfortunately and although the vents are useless I need to keep them to suit the dash.

Thanks!

They are all usually a mare to remove as the screws rust solid, the result is the philips head usually rounds off. Most are broken off to facilitate the rot repair.

I'm pretty sure you'll get a couple from Mini And Metro Spares in Warrington.

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Don't know what sort of scrap yards yopu have round your way, but i've not seen a Mini in one for nearly 10 years! but then, since I live in the same area, M&M's take them all of the scrappies before they even leave the back of the waggon!!

I'm chopping a shell this weekend, think the vents have already gone but will check for you.
