Door Dots: How many?

I saw these things at coolministuff.com and wondered how many it would take to cover up the screw holes on the Clubman doors? The link is http://www.threadqueen.com/mini/inde.../door_dots.htm Has anyone tried them? As it turns out, my wife is good friends with the sister of one of the owners!

Well correct me if I'm wrong but you shouldn't need any of these. The interior of the 07s and up is nothing like the previous models. There are no holes that need covered up

Well now, isn't that a wonderful thing?
I couldn't remember from my test drives and showroom ogling (too busy looking at the other cool things about the car). It's going to be a long, obsessive wait for my Clubman...

I like the look of the bolt better than the dot.

Yeah I was kinda disappointed when I saw the checkered dots...would have liked those haha

Yes trust me it will be very obsessive wait and sometimes will feel like forever, but once you sit in the car that was just made for you a few weeks ago, it will all be worth it

Hey guys, I've got news for you. It doesn't get any eaiser or quicker. This is my third order on this crazy merry go round. The 03 was 11 months on wait time, 05 was 12 weeks wait time and the 08 Clubman was ordered 3/17 and still counting. This one seems like it has been years already. O well I might
survive yet.

Well mine felt like it took forever...i checked probably 3-4 times per day wondering where it was haha...but then the week before I was to pick it up it felt kinda quick because I ordered, they made and delivered my car in 4 weeks i was shocked because I had read other peoples stories how they had to wait multiple months
