Yeah, I know this is the 2004 guide site, but I'm looking for info about the walnut dash kit and I thought someone might mention it. I have a velvet red, white top, cordoba interior MINI and thought the walnut dash and cvt shift would look pretty cool. However, the dealer doesn't list it (except for price) and I thought may be you (or someone) might have a picture of what it looked like and an opinion or two about it. Thanks, Chris</p> Gabe, so sorry about this year’s (2005) gift guide.

I'd love to see my VacuCams there too since at $99 it's one of the best values for shooting video from the MINI.</p> Yeah I feel like I'm late to the party too Jeff!

That's what I get for burying myself in the L.A. garment district. Maybe you can consider the MINI Pajamas for the next update or next year. So far,people are ecstatic about them. Maybe you might review them??</p> Gabe, I can't even believe I missed this before you finished. That's what I get for burying myself in the L.A. garment district.

I'll offer one suggestion for improvement: put an appendix at the end that lists the suppliers/vendors. If this is done, then someone with a printed copy could type in the URL without having to search first.</p> Great catalog.
