Default Do Jaguar car come pre-wired for add-ons ???

Hi Guys, I'm new to this site so I apologize in advance if this has been posted in the wrong area. But I was wondering do Jaguar's come pre-wired for add-ons? For instance if you wanted to add Oem fog lamps. Anyone know? Thank you for any responses.

Hi JC

In most cases the wiring looms have the connections; it saves money in parts inventory for Jaguar, and the extra cost is minimal. It also makes it easier to fit the options if added later.

Practice years ago was to have blank covers where the switches would go for the options, but this is not done nowadays, so sometimes more has to be changed over. For instance, my Rover 75 has two or three versions of the console switch panel, to take a variable array of switches, even though the connectors are already there behind the panel.

Hope this helps you.

thank you this did help, I got nerve up and took the dash apart on my '88 VDP and there were the extra plug ins, so I have bought the whole light/fog/hazard/trip/cruise switch panel from a '93 VDP w/the lower front valence that has the fog lights attached thank you for the response
