Well I got a nice looking black exterior black interior 2004 XJ8 with 127k miles for what I feel is a good price as it looks perfect and had a huge folder with every maintenance record ever in it. All synthetic oil changes done since it had 12k miles on it and they were done every 3k which is absurd on this car. I will be doing some mods to it and yes I have searched on here and have not found the info I am looking for. The Arnott shock conversion kits seem to be the only way to buy an EBM to disable the light, is that the case? Also the car does not have the navigation in it, but I did see Alpine on the front door plate so I am assuming it is the Audiophile sound system or is it not? Also I have two small children I transport regularly so headrest monitors will be a must and the sound system has to have an upgrade as it is frankly underwhelming as I am a huge car audio enthusiast. On the dash towards the outer points are those a small mid range or a tweeter? I have seen information stating it was a tweeter and information stating it was a mid range and the tweeter is behind the door lever (which I do see a grill there, so very well could be). What size would the in dish mid ranges be then as I will be replacing it all!

Welcome.

I reckon you will get the answers to ALL those questions in the X350 Tech Section, just down the main menu page a little bit.

Not all members come into this "welcome/intro" area.

Good luck.
