Snapped mounting tab on the housing of a Mini Cooper F56 headlight

Mini Cooper headlight tab repair

A Mini Cooper headlight sits in the fender and bumper on small mounting tabs. If one snapped in a light hit or while the headlight was coming out, it rattles, leaves a gap or aims the beam the wrong way.

A tab repair kit only helps when the base of the tab is intact. Otherwise the plastic is rebuilt on your original housing, as described in Headlight Mounting Tab & Housing Repair.

F56 LED headlight out or fogged up

If the LED headlight on your F56 or F55 has a light section out, or fog behind the lens that does not clear, the fault is inside the headlight. Tell us the symptom and we'll confirm whether the LED or DRL module can be repaired.

Moisture is dried and the housing resealed; see Headlight Condensation Repair & Resealing and LED Headlight Repair.

A melted connector or a halogen bulb

On a halogen Mini, a beam out is usually the bulb. A bulb connector that melted is part of the car's wiring, so start with your local shop.

If the heat also damaged the headlight itself, send photos and we'll confirm in your quote whether it can be repaired.

Countryman and Clubman headlights

Broken tabs, moisture or an LED fault on a Countryman or a Clubman go through the same quote: photos of the headlight, the damage and its label.

Keeping the original means the headlight still sits flush in its fender and matches the other side.

Questions from Mini owners

Two tabs broke and the lights still work. Is a Mini Cooper headlight replacement the only way?

Not necessarily. Send photos of the back of the headlight, and your quote says whether the tabs can be rebuilt on the housing you have.

Which photos help with broken tabs?

The back of the headlight with the broken tabs in view, plus the label on the housing.

Other makes are on Headlight Repair by Make and Model.
