Hole above rearview mirror.

Just bought a beatiful 88 XJS convertible. runs great, but needs some cosmetic TLC. Does anyone have a clue as to what goes in the headliner just above the rear view mirror? I would think a dome light since it has two leads coming out of it. If so, any idea where one can be purchased? thanks.

hole in your headliner
 
Yes, that's a dome light. Very fragile ... glass that flips from position to position. No longer available but you should be able to find one online. I'd recommend Graham Hallett graham@grublogger.co.uk . He's found a few things I've needed.

I appreciate the help. I am looking for any and all links I can find for parts/etc. I will certainly go take a look. Steve

Have you tried Jagbits? They have a ton of stuff but can be pretty pricey. Doing a quick search, they do have dome lights. They're $140 (US).

A bit pricey indeed

Thanks for the input. you are right. 140 is a bit pricey for a dome light, especially when I am going to have the rag top replaced soon anyway. thanks again. steve

dome light available
 
There's one on Ebay right now. My bid is at $25 but feel free to outbid me.

Thanks for the heads up
 
RobinLarry, thanks for letting me know about the Ebay. But in my book, it's first come first serve. Don't want to compete with a fellow poster.
