Hi All,

I'm wondering if it is possible to fit a set of Sports pack arches ona Mk2 mini, with the external hinges. I've seen many minis with internal door hinges with them but none with externals.

Will the guards or hinges need any modifications so they will not interfere with each other or will they fit sweet with no mods?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Phantom.

from my pictures of sportspacks i think they would interfere with the hinges.
i am sure you can cut them so they merge together but im not sure on the look of this

not too clear but you see how far back they go

heres the rear

It does interfere. You wouldn't need to cut much out though.

Thanks for the reply's, I kind of suspected they would interfere, but without having a set to to measure up with, I wasn't sure.

If anyone has fitted these to this model, I'd love to see how they fit.

Cheers.

Here's a pic taken at Minishow. I've left it big so you can zoom in and see how much.

Yep, mine needed a 10mm cutout to allow the lower door hinge to fit under the arch. Other than that, they are fine.

Sorry, no pics of mine.

A turbo mini at the mini muster had a zee max kit on and he had to cut the hinge holes out and it still looked tuff.
