Hi from sunny Guernsey
Hello all, I have owned Sovereigns in the past but have just purchased a Jaguar X type 2002 3.0 V6, it's a lovely car to drive, there are a couple of little things I want to do to it and after Google searching I found this forum :-) and what a gem it is, everyone seems to be so knowledgeable, so if you could be so kind as to help I would really appreciate it.
Firstly the car doesn't have any reversing sensors but does have the connector in the boot, I can buy a new rear bumper skirt kit that comes with the holes pre-cut, the wiring loom sensors control module and speaker, is there anyway to replace the skirt without removing the bumper? and is it as simple as just clipping on the new skirt and connecting the loom.
Secondly I would like to add a reversing camera but using the media screen on the dash console, how would I go about connecting this as have heard the screen is NTSC and the connections would need to be done via the Sat Nav in the boot, would any camera work? could I use a camera from an XF Jag? as couple available on ebay part number C2Z23011,C2Z26550, or DX23-19G490-AB
sorry for all the questions.
regards
Rob

Welcome to the forum Rob,
Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.
I can see you've already found your way to the X-Type tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.
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.

Congratulations on your 'new' X-type. We have a very active section for those cars that you'll really enjoy.
