I need to change only the door lock cylinder on my '07 Cooper S. When did this get so complex? You really have to take all of this apart? Is their an abbreviated version of the directions for the cylinder?
Do you stock the panel clips for the door?
Also the cylinder came with plastic keys? Can you even get metal/original style keys?

This is the procedure. No quicker way.

Hello Brian - Yes, we have the panel clips for the door. Which ones do you need? #4 is the grey one and is the most common one on the door here: Pelican Parts - MINI 2007 Cooper S Door Panel Clip. Let me know if you need a different one from viewing the diagram below.
