yes I did. Many thanks to Sarath the guy who replied #12. Told me to just buy the part and connect it through the footwell.

When I bought the part it should've come with 4pin repair kit in order to connect it to the module LED that already come with the dash. So right now I'm waiting for that repair kit.


since your car is 2020, I believe the connectors is already there behind the dash

I sincerely think that the 2017 model (pop & bang YES) is better than the 2020 model (pop & bang NO) at least in €uropa

My 2019 JCW pops and bangs well....

Hello

I am also interested in fitting the part, but I need a part number for the UK (RHD) specific vehicle.

What do you mean by 4 pin repair kit, do uyou have an part numbers or photos of this please?

So a small update i took mine to a MINI dealer two hours from me and they were extremely helpful. They said my wiring harness was the same as one with the dash piece in it. They charged me $70 to go in to look if the wires were there and they were. They installed the piece and now the only downside is the lights aren’t on. They need to be coded for activation and the dealership I guess doesn’t have the line code for that so they have to wait for a update from MINI/BMW. Hoping I can find the line code sooner than later. So the 2019’s and up have the wires in the back.

not yet but love it mines a 2018 so will see if i can order one

 

[tassy75]

I contacted this guy about it HStewart@chandlers-bmw.co.uk and he will have the part next week to check it’s the right one before I buy it.
I removed my glovebox and the 3 connection plugs are there but don’t know it it will require coding mine is a Nov 2019 JCW

 

[dazza]

interesting to see if its the right one as i cant find the part number for a rhd part yet

 

[tassy75]

51456819877 is the part number he has ordered so hopefully find out tomorrow if it’s correct

 

[tassy75]

Dealer has emailed me to say part has arrived and is correct for uk cars

so is this just for one trim piece ! Now we know they are available in the uk, very interested, but would like both pieces ideally or am I missing something

 

[tassy75]

I have only ordered the part for passenger side as didn’t know there was two pieces

sorry should explain better mate, obviously there is the trim piece behin the dash as well, won’t these need to be matching ? also do you have a pic of the plug behind the glove box, mines a 2016 so I doubt it’s going to be there so might have to try retrofitting the wires

 

[tassy75]

There is 3 cables that have 4 wires each
I think you should be able to take feed from footwell lightings it has 5 wires but the other 4 match the colours for the Union Jack plugs
Will need to wait till it gets delivered but have stripped it out awaiting the panel

thanks for the photos and pointers look forward to seeing it fitted

 

[tassy75]

So part arrived and good news it is correct.
Connected to the existing wiring but not working so probably needs some sort of coding so half way there

 

[tassy75]

Does anyone have the code to enable the lighting on the panel
