Official Alarm Retrofit (Updated)

This week on MotoringFile DIY Friday we’ve got an updated version of a classic install guide. We’ve featured an early version of the official MINI Alarm Retro-fit PDF for years in our DIY page. However since MINI has updated the install guide recently we thought it might be appropriate to repost this always popular PDF.

According to this the kit includes and requires the routing of the connection harness. I thought all minis were already pre-wired?

I’m really glad I bought and installed the earlier version of this kit for my 03 MCS. It looks like they eliminated the tilt detector module that mounts in the boot. And it sure looks like alot more work now than what I did in my driveway in under an hour…

Remove the rear seat? Cut the headliner? Wiring modifications? I didn’t have to do any of that…
