Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
The bulbs I ordered arrived.
Naturally they were listed wrong and are completely incorrect. Ordered some more, which will hopefully be the correct type.
Someone has been in here before. Yup, all the plastics are broken. Great. More to fix.

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
It was stripped and has been left half dismantled for over 2 years. I'm not even bothering with it.DodgeRover wrote: ↑Sat Apr 20, 2024 10:55 pm Have you tried the engine or has it been part stripped?

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
I suppose you can now say the car has a V12 in it. I'm always suspicious of quality of electrical installation when I see aftermarket audio installs. At least it's Alpine in there being decent aftermarket audio brand. Nowadays it'd likely be some cheap arse generic Chinese brand from Amazon that li...

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
Super duper(!) premium sound. 20240418_173258.jpg It works, and powers the speakers (that don't sound stock) in the doors. 4x50W so not too shabby for the era. There's wiring for a second amp and a sub. Fair do. I guess that'll be on the wishlist. Probably just stick a 12" on a 400-500W class D...

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
Ime on those bulbs, once one blows others are due to blow soon after. The shock of removing the cluster can kill the other marginal bulbs. Plus old bulbs are dimmer and it's obvious especially with backlight bulbs when only some have changed. Yup. The knocks and bumps finished off the last two bulb...

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
The 'track' and position numbers should be green, I think it only comes on with the lights. i only noticed as the S for sport looked illuminated but I couldn't see the button next to that for the cruise (if yours has it). Ah, okay. No the track doesn't light up green. The cruise button is also burn...

Re: Y2k Jag XJ8
Well, that was easy.
Dash out, bulbs out. All four will be changed, one only left working, the third the filament broke as I pulled it.
I'll get some more bulbs
