Parts commonality between XJR and XJ Sport
Can someone in the know tell me if the following parts are common between an X308 4.0 XJR and an X308 3.2 XJ Sport please?
Seats - look similar but are they electrically the same? If not, are they the same shape so that the covers are common?
Steering wheel
Headlining
Subframes
Control arms
Hubs
Driveshafts
Brake calipers, master cylinder, ABS sensors etc
Catalytic converters
Exhaust (I know the tip trims differ)
Exhaust manifolds
Glass (is the tint the same)
Thanks very much in advance

I would assume engine and trans are the only things that aren't the same. Steering wheel is all leather on the Sport. Wood grain on the R, unless you have a 100. Airbag doesn't say XJR or R on it.
I have a 1998 3.2 Sport. I've fitted a Steering Wheel from an XJR, seats from a Daimler, dash 'wood' parts from an XJ later model, all sorts of spare parts from my local Jag breakers, pretty much everything is the same except for the engine and transmission as Z07Brandon said. I had the simple up/down/forward/backwards on my seat controls... with the Daimler seats I got all the controls and the wiring was already fitted to the car, just plugged 'em in worked a treat. On a similar note, I fitted Cruise Control too as I got the steering wheel switches with the wooden one from the XJR, all the wires and plugs were fitted for that too. From what I've found, it appears Jaguar used a common wiring loom for nearly all the cars, but only fit the 'addons' depending on the model?

Thanks guys and excellent news.
I have a 1998 XJR with a cream interior which is cracked and split and filthy. It's new to me and in need of a wheel refurb, tyres and a suspension refurb.
I found locally a silver 3.2 sport with a tidy black interior, wheels in good condition, matching tyres and lowish miles with a missfire and rusty chassis legs for £500, so some parts swapping will see me with my money back, lots of spares and a much nicer XJR.
