Looked this part up and it appears that with a little effort the entire headlight bucket is removable.

Jaguar XK8 Headlight Lens - Auto Parts Online Catalog

According to the rear view of the picture you shoud beable to measure the dia. The problem I see is that the headlight is sealed from the front and there would not be any way to get the angle eye in the housing with out some serious modification.

Its a place to start any way.

A tad under 4"

Superbright LEDS do a nice set up and supply a "diffuser" that fits perfectly over the ring they supply, you will be looking at about $40 for the lot, however, don't really fit, they are a tad too big, but maybe with some perseverance you may make them go in!

Look HERE........ Or if you want something that does fit.....



They cost a bit more as you pay for a purpose made aluminium ring which is polished but it is all plug n play and simple
