iJDMTOY Euro Clear Front Fender Side Marker Housings for MINI Cooper R60/R61 (2011–2016) — Euro White Lens, OEM Fit

These iJDMTOY Euro-style clear/frosted white front fender side marker housings replace the factory amber units on select 2011–2016 MINI Cooper R60 Countryman and 2013–2016 R61 Paceman models to create a cleaner, Euro look. Whether you’re repairing a damaged side marker or upgrading the look of your MINI, these aftermarket housings are molded to match OEM fitment while offering a clear, high-gloss lens instead of the stock amber or red. Constructed from impact-resistant ABS with a PMMA front lens and UV-resistant coating, the set is intended to be a like-for-like replacement for original part numbers 63-13-9-802-569/570 and 63-13-9-802-567/568, delivering improved reflectivity and a modern aesthetic without complex rewiring.

Will these side markers fit my MINI Cooper Countryman or Paceman?

Yes — these housings are designed specifically for MINI Cooper R60 Countryman models from 2011 through 2016 and R61 Paceman models from 2013 through 2016. They match the OEM mounting points and electrical bulb base so they install as direct replacements.

• Compatible models: 2011–2016 R60 Countryman; 2013–2016 R61 Paceman
• Replaces OEM part numbers listed for front bumper/fender markers
• Direct-fit design to avoid trimming or modification

How do these clear/frosted markers install and what tools do I need?

Installation follows the same steps as swapping the factory side marker: remove the OEM unit, unlock the bulb base, swap in the replacement housing, then re-secure. Most installations require only basic hand tools and about 10–20 minutes per side for an experienced DIYer.

• Remove fastener clips or screws holding OEM marker
• Twist and unlock bulb base to disconnect wiring
• Install new housing, reinsert bulb base, and secure with original hardware

What materials and finishes are used, and how do they perform?

The housings use an ABS plastic backing for durability and a PMMA (acrylic) front lens with a UV-protective coating for long-lasting gloss and reflectivity. This combination resists fading and keeps the clear/smoked look intact under normal road and weather conditions.

• ABS housing for impact resistance and structural stability
• PMMA lens for optical clarity and enhanced reflectivity
• UV coating helps prevent yellowing and preserves gloss

Why choose these aftermarket side markers over OEM replacements?

They offer the same fit and function as OEM parts but at a lower price, with a distinct Euro-style clear lens that modernizes the vehicle’s appearance. Ideal for owners wanting a clean, factory-like upgrade without dealership pricing or custom fabrication.

• OEM-spec fit at a fraction of dealer cost
• Cleaner aesthetic versus USDM amber or red markers
• Suitable for repair, retrofit, or visual customization projects

This replacement set is a practical choice for MINI owners who want reliable fitment and a refreshed front-end look without complicated modifications. It’s well suited to DIY mechanics, enthusiasts performing cosmetic upgrades, and anyone replacing cracked or faded OEM markers. Note: bulbs are intended to reuse the vehicle’s existing bulb and wiring; check local regulations for side marker color compliance before installation.
