Default Bought my Jag an older brother to hang around with..





97 with 142k, runs like a top,,all the timing chain/guides upgrades done, even the cupholders work perfect! ,bought from a local to me owner, price was right.Gonna drive it for a bit keep the miles down on my XKR that I have put over 20k miles in two years and give me some time to do some maintence and upgrades to the xkr.
Question:Has anyone swapped in X150 seats to an X100,,Im used to the X150 seats and the X100s have zero support and dont feel good at all compared to the newer ones.

Not a chance. Nothing lines up without drilling and fabricating, nothing connects without doing a rewire.
As far as physically FITTING, it would probably be tight since the X100s are smaller inside.
Course, if you're over 5'-10" or so, you'll already be looking out the top half of the windshield anyway. Change to a thicker seat and you'd probably hit your head on the ceiling.

Thats actually a great idea...might be cost prohibitive, but im sure there are a lot of shared parts.

The last versions of the X100 had much better seats and some had Recaro. There may even been aftermarkets available as well.

Enjoy the X100. I like family pics.

Also, the later seats in the X100 have different electronics and don’t work in the earlier models.
