Trim bits
Does anyone know the best place to get bits of trim that went missing over the years (for a reasonable price)? E.g. missing seat belt "top" cover, "air bag" bit under seat back handle, bolt/screw covers for wipers and trim under wiper, tow hook cover (saw that one somewhere for US176, yikes!).
Also going to look at local junkers, but not sure how good the odds are of finding all part there.
Thanks in advance,
Theo

Have you tried the members marketplace? I've gotten some nice used parts from members parting out their cars. Someone recently stole the hood badge off my XK8 and ebay vendor Soughtout1 had one at a good price. He might have some of the stuff you need.
Several Jag specific salvage yards out there. Soughtout1 has miscellaneous parts. Also try Noma Auto Parts (personal recommendation). Plus with 3D printing getting cheaper eBay has some sources as well. Try https://octoclassic.com/product-category/jaguar for the few odd bits.
Google searches can be your friend.

Thanks guys, great stuff. Checked out octoclassic, but 3D printing is still pretty pricey for a cheapo like me. Will check out salvage yards first.

I regularly get small parts for my 98 XK8 Convertible from AutoReserve in the UK. They are continually breaking Jaguars. I live in Australia and their postage rates are very reasonable considering the distance between us.
i find a great deal on ebay or amazon
