Default Chrome headlight trims??

Afternoon all, I was just looking at these chrome headlight covers on eBay and they are cheaper from the 2002 to 2007 range. Are the 2002 and 2001 the same shape?? Mine is a Jaguar X type 51 plate 3 L thank you

The 2001 and 2002 are identical.

Default Headlight trims

I thought as much, just wanted to check with someone who knows more then me. I can get set for £38 used or £50 new which seems reasonable to me.
Nice one for taking the time to help me avern1.

I believe the inexpensive ones are plastic self adhesive, and the other more expensive types are metal. Would like to install some but don't want plastic unless they are perfect

Subtle yet tasteful addition, really makes the nose look complete, especially with a mesh grill.

I suggest adding the rears as well; BIG difference!

I've always really liked the rear ones, adding to that baby xj look, still not so sure about the front ones..
