  1. The dealership has confirmed the date and time. Anybody plan to be there?
  2. Answer found - they are expanding rivets. https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=ZB33-USA-02-2012-R60-Mini-Cooper&diagId=51_8048
  3. Has anyone replaced a bulb on the rear side markers of a second gen? The light is just behind the back tire on the black plastic wheel arch, and there's a covering on the inside of the wheel well that blocks access. Every how-to I've seen online is for first gens, where the arch and wheel well cover are attached with Philips head screws. Mine look like rivets with a small circular hole in the middle. Definitely not Philips. Are these rivets the plastic type that will pop out with force or is there another trick to it? I don't feel the need to pay for half an hour of labor at the dealership just to replace a bulb to pass inspection...
  4. Yup, I'm in that area every day around that time. Hi! :motor: :wavey:

  7. That makes sense. And now that I think back to the event they did for the new Clubman, they had at least 3 of them onsite that night - one in the showroom and 2 available for test drives. Definitely can't take one for a spin at the auto show... They likely have different sets of vehicles for these events vs. those on the show circuit.
  8. The DC Auto show opens this weekend. I wonder if they will take the new Countryman to the expo center after this event? I'll ask David Hellmuth when I give him our RSVP numbers.

  11. I had a brief 'spirited' run with a white MCS, black stripes, MD tags (Sherm?) on 66W this morning. I took the exit and they beeped as they passed. A nice start to the day!
