Fronts sway bar end links comparison - Mini Cooper vs SVX
I just installed a set of used Mini Cooper sway bar end links from another forum member and took a picture for people who are wondering the size differences. This is a plug and play!
Mini end link on the left, SVX on the right. The hardware is NOT compatible; the nuts from the SVX will not work on the Mini threads. Cheers.

So the extra length doesn't matter?

A quick search on Rock auto for 2005 Mini Cooper "Stabilizer Bar Link" gives MEVOTECH Part # MK80499 along with some other choices. The rear link looks like the one for us.
Price is between 16 and 28 depending on manuf.

Have you tried making homemade end links? I made some for my car out of polystyrene and they work great.

And I made some chicken and corn on the grill last night. I would love to see your plastic version of the front SVX endlink...

Nah, there's quite a bit of wiggle room it looks like. The rears even more so.
