2006 mini cooper convertible
First Question on Tailgate light: Does it matter if Rear Backup Lamp 16W is replaced by a 16/18W original bulb only 16W? Flosser Bulb; Wedge Base, 16/18W 2nd Question: What do I need to fasten rear left trim arch to my mini? How many clips etc? There are 5 white knobs and 2 holes. Thank you. Videos are great!

You have to use the same wattage that is originally equipped.
You will need 5 clips. Give The Pelican Parts parts specialists a call at 1-888-280-7799. They can figure out what part or repair kit you need. - Nick |

It's always good to replace bulbs in pairs as well as it is most likely that the other one is on its way out as well.
The correct replacement bulbs are inexpensive and are a safe option to go with: 2006 Mini Cooper Base Convertible - Lights and Lenses - Page 6.
