The JCW Alcantara/leather steering wheel. As someone else said, you touch it all the time. It is SOOOOO much nicer. When I drive another MINI, it's like YUCK! This wheel sucks...
Probably the 5% limo tint on the sunroof is second. Especially in summer...
All the other mods I've got, are useful sometimes, but not ALL the time. (except the Integral Audio stuff, but that's not really a feel all the time thing...)

Say would you comment further on the below.

What I was "Cautious" about was (Concerned) over the tint cracking the Glass Roofs.
I was told many years ago that was a possibility so that is why I am asking you.

Not sure it is better, I have not seen a K&N "equivalent", I put on what I did because I did not want to go the K&N route, I live in the PNW and having a K&N Filter for me was not an option, I cannot wait 48hrs.+ for the Filter to dry in the wetter months.
The MiniMania Snorkel gives Molly a much sportier feel, a stiffer accelerator and like I said, I don't have to hit the Sport Button at all and I'm still getting Low 30mpg's.

I am not sure how this part can actually improve the kind of benefit you are observing?
Can you please send me a link to what you actually purchased?

Richard,
Say would you comment further on the below.
I have the double glass roofs so that would surely be an asset.
What I was "Cautious" about was (Concerned) over the tint cracking the Glass Roofs.

It gets 100 Deg. plus here in Franklin, TN. in mid summer.
So I think that is going to be done to out MCS soon.
