Just a correction note - once you have all screws and clips undone, you pull the door pad horizontally towards you and not up. I pulled the window rubbers off which is the wrong way to do it.

Hi Hilton. Great video. Just shows how intricate the door panel arrangement is. The wood wrap on centre piece looks well and it will be interesting to see the result when all the wrapping is done. :-)

Whats up Hilton! Im about to change my 8" display to a 10" display. Ive done my research and found an OEM part from a donor vehicle. So I wanted to let you know as that seems like something youd like to do as well. I wasnt thinking about recording until i saw your videos and i figured itd be very helpful because it was difficult to find how to do it. Ill keep you posted!

Thanks Xavier. Post a link to your video once you've done it. Many subscribers would like to know how to do this. I haven't done it as I'm looking for an XFR to buy and won't be keeping my XF for very long ;)

Hi Hilton, interesting re the ambient lighting. I noticed in one of your other videos you said there was no lighting in the door handles on your x260. However mine is the prestige model without ambient lighting but my door handles have lights. So as it looks you pointed out your we’re connected up but don’t seem to work could there be an issue with your bulb?

Hey Daniel, I'm not quite sure but I'll check at the dealer tomorrow as I have to rake it in for new windshield wipers (being replaced under the maintenance plan). I'll ask to have a look at one on the showroom floor. Thanks for letting me know as I was confused that it's plugged in, but yet none of the door handles light up. I thought Jag cheaped out on me - if they did, I have no problem remedying that myself as I was planning on quite a large ambient lighting project on the car.

Hey Artur. Yes apparently there clips that were missing inside the light housing so the LEDs were twisted the wrong way. Jaguar fixed it under warranty.

Great video. Hilton you mention “the manual,” what brand of manual are you referring too? Did you purchase online? In the USA, Chilton is a popular service and repair manual but not currently offered for the XF 260. You are off to a great start and can’t wait to the dash trim removal. Also I have an inkling you will solve the ambient lighting wiring too. Cheers.

Hi Reggie - yeah I did. I should probably do a video on it. The Android system actually is plug and play and all the current stuff in the car will work with it (cameras, factory USB, antenna etc). The only thing that requires an additional antenna is the GPS in the replacement unit. But that's easy, you just plug the antenna in and hide it somewhere inside the dash. They are pretty expensive though and the house needs more money to be spent on it, so I'm not buying one any time soon. But at least I know I can replace it if I want to.

Thanks Ofer but since I didn't have the option of speccing wood in the car, I will be adding it myself. If you'd been following me for years, you will know by now that I do things properly and whatever I do will ensure it looks better than the plastic they endowed my XF with.
