How did u paint your interior door handle piece green? Does that separate? Or did u tape it off. U did a good job and would like to do that with my r53
Yes the storks that stick through to the back that you grind the tops off, you just put adhesive on those, see here: ruclips.net/video/2_kwj-cVYuQ/видео.htmlsi=ZwT2c78MWGGQgb7C
Hi do you mean the trim I painted green? If so it’s plastic welded to the panel so you have to drill out the plastic welds. Paint then put back in place with adhesive, see this video Mini R56 R55 R53 How to remove the painted door card trim? FAQ Instructions 2001-2018 Cooper S ruclips.net/video/2_kwj-cVYuQ/видео.html as it’s similar for the r56/r55

Unfortunately not. Very similar to this I did for my r56, it’s plastic weld on so you have to drill it off from behind: ruclips.net/video/2_kwj-cVYuQ/видео.html
Did you take the panel apart to paint your handle green? Just took mine apart and noticed it’s all rivets. Did you break them all or did you just tape off the door?
Hi thanks for watching, I drilled out each of the spot welds, see this video for a similar method I used on my r56 ruclips.net/video/2_kwj-cVYuQ/видео.html
For anyone wanting to change their speakers/upgrade door cards/fix door locks/get to window mechanism etc they need to be able to remove the door cards, this shows you how

Good vid, really informative 👍
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
My friend has a black box on the right above the bottom speaker. It is connected to the doors wiring. Any idea what it is?
Maybe aftermarket speakers?
Would this be the same for an R50?
Exactly the same.
Yes
Can I ask where you purchased the internal door handle strappy things? They look awesome
Hi they are from Orranje Performance
Can you remove the oval green trim without remove the entire door panel?
Unfortunately not. Very similar to this I did for my r56, it’s plastic weld on so you have to drill it off from behind: ruclips.net/video/2_kwj-cVYuQ/видео.html
@@tweedbean oh ☹️ thank you
Beautiful Mini

My R53 is pre-puddle lights. Do ya know if these are a rave to retrofit?
Not seen a retro fit done before. Can’t imagine it’s that bad but not seen a kit
Very useful this, are the trims easy to remove from the card? Or did you paint yours on the card?
Removed by drilling out the plastic rivets
Do you have a video for this, I'm looking to spray the door trim circles. Thanks for this!
Why do you need to remove the arm rest, there are no fittings concealed under it?
If people want to retrim or replace it etc. good to cover that in the same video
good video!
Thanks for watching
Where are the straps from :)
Orranje Performance 👍🏼. They are made by Rennline
Very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!

the interior that taste forgot
Hi thanks for watching, taste is all down to personal opinion and I couldn’t be happier with the R53 interior. If you don’t like it, fair enough.
Am I the only one struggling with the very first clip? It just doesn't want to give
The arm rest? It can be tricky the first time it ever comes off
@@tweedbean Yes. I feel like an idiot because it looks so easy but I spent a good 10 minutes fiddling it to relase.
i’m in the same boat, is there any other way to take it off? i’m trying to stick a knife in behind it but it’s literally doing nothing
@@gizabitadah I just spent an hour fighting with it and it suddenly clicked. Don't be aggressive so as not to break thr clip
That armrest will. NOT move 😢
Sorry to hear that, they can sometimes be very stubborn
