Default 1999 XK8 Audio System

As the title says I have a 1999 XK8. the sound system works but I'm looking to upgrade the head unit. I have done some basic looking around and it appears that no one makes an after market kit for this car. Is this something I have to go through a dealer or a custom audio store for? If so, any recommendations? Im in the Nothern VA area.

You could try this https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...ontrols-56937/ there are other options to be found in the modifications area at the top of the xk8 forum page.

Hi Trevor-
Just a bit of friendly advice...

I can understand your desire to upgrade if you have the standard sound system.

It is definitely not as much fun, but please do not delay having your secondary chain tensioners upgraded as your first priority. This is a 'must do' on XK8's of this age or you risk major engine damage. There is much information on the forum regarding this...please review it and come back to us if you have questions.

Steve
