Just brought a few things for our Cooper S off Ebay to find that lots of parts that fit Coopers don't fit the Cooper S. Our chrome (plastic) rear tail light surrounds don't fit, the chrome (plastic) fog light surrounds also don't fit. But the parker and reverse light does that came in the kit.
If anyone is interested in tail light surround or fog light surrounds post a message or PM me, I have no use for them. I'll be taking them to the Mt Cooper car show, might off load them there.
Just a warning to Cooper S owners that all parts don't fit our cars. But they are good parts and would have looked great :(

Very interesting, as far as I am aware all lights are common for Cooper and Cooper S? Could they be for the later 2005 model?

Maybe it was because I have clear lenses cause our friends mini has the original ones and they fit, they just don't have anything to stick to? As for the fog lights, they don't go anywhere near ours, not sure why, haven't tried them on our freinds mini, I'm sure they will fit. On the box it says for Coopers from 2002 onwards, I guess that doesn't mean Cooper S Minis? Most the other stuff I have brought has fitted fine, just this stuff??????

Ah well hopefully someone can use them and wants to buy them either at the show or back on Ebay.

Thanks for your comments I was also in the same boat thinking all parts fitted.
