Installed new hood insulator in friends 95' XJS Convertible

100% improvement over old disintegrating insulator. On the XJS removed the grill to get at the hinges to remove hood. Cleaned the underside of the hood spotless. Drilled out pop-rivets and removed black brackets. Fit liner, then applied glue. Pressed in, applied Jaguar logo. Pop riveted black brackets back on and remounted hood and grill. Done LOOKS great. Also installed new fog lamps and Gold Hood Leaper.

Highly recommended.

Nice post Ed and especially relevant with the current hoodliner promotions on the forum.
