From Jaguar and they will be Expensive. The XKR uses the CAT Adjustable Suspension with computer controlled Shocks.

I hear that Bilstein is making a replacement but the price is also high.

I recently had these replaced on my 2005 XKR Coupe by All Jaguar located in Longwood, Florida. I am not sure where they got them but the price was much less then Jaguar...still over $300 each. By the way, it is really a pain to replace them and you will almost certainly want to have the top strut bushings replaced at the same time. Figure another $150-$175 parts cost for each of the bushings. While you have the struts out it would also be a good time to replace the top wishbone suspension bushings. They are inexpensive and fairly easy to replace.

Hope this will be helpful.
