I am new to the forum. I recently purchased a 1997 XK8 coupe and have been really enjoying it.

I'm considering replacing the lid on my center console armrest. It is a little worn but the rest of the interior looks great. Any recommendations for locating a new replacement part?


Thanks


Tony

Welcome Tony- we own the same animal. I would start with Ebay if you don't mind used, but there are plenty of other places you can try as well. I have purchased parts from these guys when looking for new..... Jaguar Parts Center - Call (800) 510-1401 for Genuine Jaguar Parts and Accessories

If you haven't already done so you should add your car details to your signature to help others to help you.

 

Thanks to all.

welcome to the forum and Jag family. Check the threads in the link provided as there are other options to refinish the leather that may be something to consider instead of replacing.

 

There are many threads on refinishing the leather....search the forum. Many companies make quality dyes.

Also the padding can be restored:
