Default Retrofit Steering Wheel

Hi,

I have a 2007 XK and planning on swapping out the steering wheel because of some scrathes in the leather.

When first taking the step to buy a wheel, is it possible to mount one of the new facelift wheels like the one below? My car has the ACC btw.

Yes Kristian. This seems to be a straight forward swap. Something I've been debating myself.

Upgrade 2007 XK steering wheel with 2011/2012 XK or XF wheel

Another option is to do something similar to the this.

Jaguar XKR s GT Flat Bottom Alcantara Thicker Small Custom Carbon Steering Wheel | eBay


Follow that up with trimming the interior in carbon. Yum.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Derek Fricke

Nice one. Do you have the name on the seller? Im trying to find a wheel with the adaptive cruise without any luck.

Nexon Motors is the Carbon wheel setup.

I was referring to the original facelift wheel, not the carbon.

Best bet would be Ebay. I've seen many on there factory take offs for 100$.
There is a vendor on there LKQ that deals with salvage parts.
