I would like to replace mine also but it seems to be a "molded" fit to the car?

I just did mine and it looks great. I changed the color from tan to black and purchased some new floor mats. I did my seats also, but to my surprise the carpet made a bigger difference than the seat.

They used stock, it does not have to be molded. Any good shop can put it in and it should look perfect. I did not go crazy on the carpet, you can spend tons for real wool, I just picked a black carpet from the shop that I liked. It was $600 for the carpet installed. They had my seats off anyway so they cut me a little break.

Any reputable auto interiors & tops shop can do this with the carpet and padding of your choice. You'll save considerable money using their available selection vs. ordering factory pieces from Jaguar. Plus, you'll have a much wider array of choices and you'll usually get a better, longer-lasting carpet if you do your research before you make your final decision....

I just bought a 99 XK8 and the interior was filthy and I thought the carpet was ruined but I pulled them out and pressure washed them and the actually came out great
