RE: aftermarket radio
 

Try nexxia.com/uk or something like that just go to google and type in nexxia...they have many products for car stereos in jags...hopefully they have something...got any pics of what you need to cover or do you mean you want a whole entire dash kit if thats the case nexxia is where to go...hopefully they have something for that year of car...

RE: aftermarket radio
 

It's actually nexxia.co.uk , the nexxia.com is just a bunch of spam

RE: aftermarket radio
 

yeah thats what I meant...co...you figured it out quite easily though didn't you?

RE: aftermarket radio
 

My XJ40 had a conventional panel behind the curved one for a standard US radio. It went in pretty straight forward with no gaps? Actually looks better than the stock one did. I'm not sure what you're having trouble with? But check with your local stereo installers, they should be able to resolve your problem.

RE: aftermarket radio
 

I think our x's are a little different...our whole middle comes out and is attached to the radio...so there'd be a hole quite large in the middle of our dash...

ya i realized the panal for the DIN1 radios once i started tearing it apart. Does anyone know which wires go to which speaker? the colors are totally different to what im used to....

RE: aftermarket radio
 

I'm not for sure on that...I'll try contacting biggie to find out what they were for his ride...

RE: aftermarket radio
 

Hey mate, try and buy the custom stereo wiring harness for a for from 1986+. It'll work for sure on the Jags up to 2004...not sure from there. However, if this is not enough, let me know and I'll remove my radio and tell you which wires go where. However, the custom wiring harness only costs $10-$15 at any Sound Advice.

RE: aftermarket radio
 

Shoot you go to walmart by me and you have any harness except the new gm ones that have the module in them and your talking 6.94!!! They even have the ones for early gm vehicles with chimes for 30 bucks...my dealer cost on them is like 50-100+...the one for 50 is one that relocates your stock radio to underneath your seat and the other has the chime box with it...

Bad jag I'd go buy the wiring harness and if it doesn't work take it back...

RE: aftermarket radio
 

thnx for all the great advice guys! ill give u regular updates

RE: aftermarket radio
 

So how far are you thus far?

RE: aftermarket radio
 

im tearing into her today after work(around 8pm est). going to be hookup up 2 12" kickers with a 1200watt amp. ill post some pics too.

RE: aftermarket radio
 

Hey whick kickers you get? Hopefully cvr's! I had those hooked up in my escape with a ported box and 600watts rms hifonics txi6006 amp and man did it sound good! Those subs look and sound awesome. I hooked them up to my kenwood 800 watt amp and they sounded great in that too! Make sure you take some pics!

RE: aftermarket radio
 

That's amazing [:-]!!!
Your cars must sound likemoving restaurant ...Restaurant ? Ergghmmm what was that ? [&:] LOL yeah moving concert arena lol

RE: aftermarket radio
 

The escape had that in there not the jag....otherwise it was pretty loud in the escape! We sold both the box with subs and amp last weekend when we set up...unfortunately I currently have only a used l5 10 and a directed studio series in there right now...

RE: aftermarket radio
 

after long consideration. and alllll the crap i ran into trying to run the new head unit. i just returned everything and started fresh. Soooooo i need another head unit. A new Sony headunit with full IPOD control. And im having 2 JL audio 13.5" speakers in the trunk. if i dont liek the sound quality with the 2 13.5's ill go with a bigger amp and 3 12" subs. Should have pics/vids up tomorrow!

RE: aftermarket radio
 

You already have the head unit? I get huge deals on some pioneer players...avic d3 is like low 700's...I also get the pioneer deh6900ub for 220...that cd player has usb connection in which you can hook up an external hard drive and navigate through that with the radio its freaking amazing...I have one coming in tomorrow I have to install in my in-laws neighbors grand cherokee...I looking forward to checking that out...those jls should do you no wrong...what amp will you have hooked to them?
