Hello to all,

I have a 2005 XJR with a black interior. I find the front seats to be very firm and narrow, with big side bolsters, and sometimes they are just not that comfortable for everyday driving. I have found a set of black front and rear seats from a 2005 Super V8 in good shape and reasonably priced. Will they fit in my XJR? From the research I've done it looks like the front seats can be swapped out without any issues, but the rear seat from the Super V8 has the recline function, while the rear seat in my XJR does not. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

Welcome to the forum cljagfan,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X350 forum. This is the place to post technical questions about your model.

Haven't done the swap myself, but owned a 200 XJR and now 2007 SV8 and can confirm the front seats are similar in operation, but rears have additional functionality in the SV8.
