Mirror cap swap on a R56 Mini Cooper 2009. Removed old and installing new caps.

Swapped the black mirror caps with black and white checkered caps. Not the peel and stick type, actually removing the OEM mirror caps and snapping in replacements.

There’s ALWAYS something that you didn’t expect that bites you in the ass. Thanks for the video!

Best way to get them off, I've just put union jack ones on my wife's mini. Looks brilliant 😀

I have a 2005, and I’m STRUGGLING to get my caps off.. 😭😭😭

[@JORDANTHOMAS-f2n]

Thankyou bro

[@adashi8857]

Can I have the link to buy it online, please 😊many thanks 🙏🙏

Many of the caps styles are being discontinued and looking on line, the price has gone up. This makes me thing they will be discontinuing all eventually. Some of places that still sell them are Seattle Mini, Minimania, and ECS tuning. What is cool is ECS sells primed caps that allows you to paint or air brush your own unique design (which I might try in a future video). Good luck!

[@mcmcminicooper]

Many of these designer OEM mirror covers are discontinued. I found them ECS and Kiwi sports. Fold in and not fold in are different and have different part numbers

stupid plastic. My tabs are just breaking like potato chips 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@mcmcminicooper]

Bummer. Curious, is your car an outside car? Just wondering if the sun causes the plastic to become brittle.

[@danielmarshall2613]
