How to mount the strips on the Mini

Model: Mini Mini R55, R57, R56 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Body

In this video we see how to mount an apparently frivolous accessory, but certainly the most aesthetically suitable for the Mini: the stripes on the hood. We can find them on Amazon with the code B07HM138XD in various color combinations at the price of 25.99 euros + 8.99 euros for shipping. They are designed to resist all weather agents and UV rays for 5/7 years. For installation, it is necessary to take measurements to place them symmetrically, and of course the surface must be carefully cleaned before applying them. We follow the indications of our youtuber for the measurements. Let's apply them half at a time as shown, smoothing them well to avoid air bubbles, then shape them at the ends with a cutter. Remove the transparent protection and the operation is completed!

How to Replace the Key Battery of the Ford Ecosport

First, lift the rear cover of the remote, where the logo of your vehicle is located. You can do this by simply lifting it with your hands, giving you access to the metal key of the device. Remove it by lifting it out, and now use a flathead screwdriver to insert the blade into the slot at the top of the key. By applying a small lever, you can extract the panel covering the battery and separating the two parts of the key. Once you have access to the battery slot, you can easily replace it.
