Hello From Tennessee
Hi everyone, Just bought my first Jaguar. A 2009 XF Premium Luxury, so far I am loving it. My previous cars where an 2006 Range Rover HSE, a 2013 Audi A4 Quattro Sport, a 1998 BMW 740iL, and lastly the one that went to trade for the Jag a 2004 VW Phaeton.
I am hoping to do a few things to my new XF to make it fit my preferences entirely.
Even though it's a beautiful car already, silver isn't really my thing, so I am going to Plasti-Dip it with either XFR blue with a gloss black grill, or leave the chrome alone and do a gloss black.
The only disappointment in the car so far is the speakers, this could be that I am coming from my last to cars having Bang and Olufsen or Blaupunkt, respectively. I am either going to replace the speakers or the amp, whichever is making the speakers sound muddy with no real discernable crisp highs and mids.
In relation to the speakers, I'm going to convert the iPod adapter to an A2DP Stereo Bluetooth adapter, possibly the one at the folks from visieoo
Lastly, and unfortunately probably not possible, a rear cam. I have the parking sensors, however no camera. I'm still trying to figure out if this is possible from the factory screen as I don't want things cluttering up the clean interior. Unfortunately no such luck so far.

Hello, Aaron,
That's the fun thing about owing something; you can Customize it to fit your needs, requirements and preferences.

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
I can see you've already found your way to the X250 tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.
Enjoy the forums.
