I have a 2005 cooper. The cables snapped and had to be replaced. My mechanic also suggested replacing the gate. However the replacements, which have the same part number apparently , don't fit the same. The pin is much thinner and is one piece whereas the pin (that fits into the top of the windscreen on both sides) on the original is thicker and fits correctly. He can't seem to figure out what we are missing.  Is it an extra part for the gate or a new modified receiver ? Thanks for your input.
