1st Gen R53 Cooper S Most liked posts in thread: Can someone please measure something for me?

On my car, 14-1/2" from the ground to the center of the light. Might be 1/2" a 1" higher on a non-lowered car. But I'm not very low in the back.

 

I thought I was pretty clear about that. But yes.

 

And that's with the car unloaded, and no one sitting in it. Which can affect ride height considerably.

 

My 03 S with stock suspension measured 14" from the bottom of the backup light to the ground.

 

Stock 2002 Cooper 15 inches

 

and good to know mine is the longest ;-)
