I would like to give everyone on the site my appreciation for all the help, and techincal links to helping resolve my minor problems with my XK8. I have only had it a couple weeks, and have worked through a bunch of small issues-- all the "secrets" came from this great site, and probably helped save me hundreds or thousands of hard earned dollars:

Dash lights
Ashtray light
Sun visor "flopsies", both the easy (clips) and hard (broken pin) variety
Dreaded 2-2 airbag fault
CD player repair
Door panel refitting
Window reprograming
Spats installation (ridiculed by some)
SAT radio install
Headlight washer issue
New keys -- ouch!
Side marker replacement (clear)
Waist trim information

And, I am sure other issues I have overlooked.

I still need to repaint my mirror covers (matt black), get the windows tinted (have an appointment), and plan to replace the headliner.

Loving the car... and very much enjoying the site and fine people here.

Thank you again.

Mark

 

Now you can get on with driving.
That's the important thing.

Exactly Norri--

I have been working hard to get it in shape so I can take it to the LeMans Sebring race in 2 weekends. Tent camping with a Jag! LOL

 

Sounds like heaven.

Don't forget to take a ton of pictures.

Glad to hear that the site/members have saved you some hard earned.
