Hi all XJSers,


My 2-hole bezel for the window switches broke some of the clips, so it's not staying put. While it's nice to be able see that the transmission is still where it should be, it makes it difficult to work the windows. The window switches themselves work fine.


Anyone have a 2-hole bezel they are willing to sell to me? I'm in Colorado, USA. 89 Jag XJS Coupe. There's a few places that sell them, rather expensive, though, so I'm asking here first. Thanks!

 

i still haven't purchased one because they are about 30 dollars. I'd rather change the diff fluid or replace X or Y than put a piece of plastic in the center console.

 

My thoughts exactly; anybody in the UK got a spare one?
Anybody got a 3D printer? Might be able to make some and earn some money?

 

ha! that is the wave of the future for car restoration in parts like this. Hopefully the wave comes in soon....

 

In process of changing changing rear in-board rotors, brake pads, rebuilding rear hand-brake system, so had to take out/down rear cage which I also cleaned of all grit and dirt. Just bought all five new tires yesterday.

So all in all, $30 doesn't seem like a lot. I knew getting my XJS would mean that I'd have to keep a bucket of money sprayed in lighter fluid with matches nearby, and thus far it's been pretty true, sadly enough. But boy, when I go for a drive, I have a sense of pride and accomplishment that I've never gotten before.

Who is selling these for $30? I'd like to talk to them about buying one.

 

Yeah $30 sounds good to me! haha.

Seriously though, probably the best thing to do is save a search on EBay so if anyone lists one you will be notified by email (or smartphone.) Did that a little while ago when I was trying to get a key fob for the alarm.

I think the problem with that piece of trim is that it's in full sunlight which causes the plastic to go brittle. Mine has broken as well. At least the switches are not part of the assembly.
