I wouldn't do the sunroof personally...

Depends what you're making the Mini for though, not a track beast I presume?

Yes do it

Although no idea where they come from as ours is factory fit option.

Wouldnt trust myself chopping the roof neither as its structural & the only pannel on a mini you cant replace!!!
