Has anyone upgraded their XK XKR rear lights to 2010 LED's?

Wanted to know if you had any electrical issues? I have got hold of a set including the admesh wiring looms that promise no error messages but am a bit sceptical in fitting them due to any potential electircal issues!

My car is an earlier XK150 and the LEDs came put in 2010.

Keep us posted if you do this, I'd be interested if it goes smoothly.

I am really happy with this upgrade it really brings the car bang up to 2012 spec ! I used a genuine set of Jaguar XKR rear lights and the Admesh wiring loom kit so that no error messages are received on the dash. The kit works great and I would recommend this install to all with a pre facelift car! If you need an installer I have a great guy who did my install - he is based just off the M4 in Slough, Berkshire. Cost of the install was £130 and takes around 2-3 hours to complete and this guy certainly knows his way around car electrics!

Good job, makes a HUGE difference. What was the cost in total?

[xkrsupercharged]

About a grand all in but worth every penny!

My son has an 2012 XF. It doesn't have the auto dipping interior mirror. He managed to get a hold of a auto dipping mirror but is having a problems fitting it. I wonder if your sparky chap would do it for him? Any chance you could pm his details.
