CARdiac Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 I thought about that, how hard is it to separate? Joel My Flickr Site The proud owner of a 2005 DS/B MCS-JCW...God is my Co-Pilot, but Satan has his foot on the Gas!!! Half of a two JCW family, I am the fast one!

Have you ever thought about doing it as a (paid) service for your fellow MINI owners? That's what I thought at first too, and I actually put it off for a while for that reason. All you really need is a heat gun, and the rest is cake. Not sure about a (paid) service, but I'd be happy to help anyone. Here are some quick iPhone pictures. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
