Default WhiteXKR's remote top control

Just finished installing WhiteXKR's remote top controller. As others have already said this is an excellent product, very clear instructions, everything you need in the kit and it worked exactly correct the first time.

WhiteXKR is a class act..

Let's all hope he keeps driving Jags and tinkering with them for a long time to come.

Ditto +1
For the past several months, whenever I use the remote, I find myself saying out loud "Thanks Steve".
My wife (cap cover assistant extraordinaire) at the beach this spring finally asked me "Who are you talking to".
I replied "Steve, the guy that invented the top remote".
She then said that she had thought I had been talking to the "Steve" in our Sunday School Class that put me on to XK8's despite my initial reluctance.
A funny moment for me but to make things perfectly clear:
Thanks to WhiteXKR Steve

Thanks guys for all the positive vibes! It really makes me happy that people enjoy the Remote Top so much.

I spent a lot of time recently doing an X150 (new XK) version. That was a much bigger challenge, because that model has no intrinsic feature to operate the top with the ignition off like the X100 does. Fortunately that is finally done.

Hopefully I will have some new X100 treats fairly soon. I have no plans to stop driving Jags nor stop trying to improve on them!

My son just bought me this as a birthday present - haven't installed it yet but Steve's instructions look straightforward and comprehensive.
Basically - my son now ONLY owes me about Ł782,643.75 (UK) - around $1.3m US for 18 years of food, shelter, taxi service, blood, sweat, tears, sleepless nights, panic attacks etc. and we're quits.
But ............... deduct Ł800k from that just because I'm very proud that he got me something sensible, rather than a hair transplant or a colonoscopy !

Nice one David, now you just need to fit it.

Get your son to help, free of charge of course.

Me too. Very happy. I had a small problem as I could not locate a wire (my fault - working in too dark a place) and Steve helped me out immediately....Great product - GREAT support. Very happy!
