Well, I had almost convinced myself I should sell the Jag.....Thank
god I've come to my senses!!!!

But I need to start freshening her up, starting with the seats, they are in poor shape, the drivers outside bolster is totally torn and the foam is even eaten up some. I'm trying to decide where to get new leather, has anyone used the 699.00 replacements off ebay? Seems I read somewhere about a supplier who also supplies the armrest cover with the seat skins.

Another issue, anyone have success trying to clean the headliner? I'm guilty of running her top down and no boot too often and its pretty dirty, I've thought about trying to hand scrub with upholstery cleaner and suction, any thoughts?

49K on her now, fyi

 

There have been a few members who got sets from Vic at TopsOnline:
1997 thru 2000 Jaguar XK8 & XKR Convertible & Coupe Models

 

Yes! That is who I was looking for with the armrest and extra material for the cup holder.

What about leather paint or dye for the steering wheel, the left side leather finish is worn off (I'm left handed) and the seam on the drivers door armrest is rubbed from my knee. I would like to repair/refinish these areas and read somewhere on the web about color matched dye/paint.

 

I have heard a lot of good things about these folks
