Quick release mk3 hinges...

Post by tomkidd »

Hi all

Has anyone ever made the hinges on a mk3 door quick release at the pin rather than having to undo them?

MiniSport have just made some alloy ones with a removable pin, got them in that latest Keeping Your Mini Alive mag I was reading in WHSmi.... erm, the library.

Can't see them on their website though

Ha ha, that was what prompted me to ask. They arent the first people to do the billet hinges but theirs are quick release. I emailed Chris Harper earlier and he said that they have them in stock

He didn't have a price yet. The Mini Sport ones arent as cut away as the DSN classic ones
