2002 X-type sterio question
Hello all. Im new to jaguar and this site, so please bear with me...
I bought a 2002 2.5 X-type froma local car dealer near me. Im hooked on jag's now, but have some problems/questions and thought maybe you can help.
Problem 1: I cant find a power chip, power commander or any horsepower units for my car.
Any ideas where i can get aftermarket upgrade parts for more horsepower?
Problem 2: I have the cd/nav unit/heat with the touch screen, and want to put in an
aftermarket radio. I cant find a mounting kit, or wire harness anywhere. took the
car to 3 different car audio stores by me and 2 said it cant be done, the other said
it would be custom and cant guarentee he wouldnt blow out my cars computer.
I dont care if i loose the nev unit(never use it anyway) and can use the manual
heat controls.
Anyone know where i can get the radio installation wire and mounting kits? Has anyone else done an aftermarket radio upgrade? If so can you please let me know what you did so I can try to do it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

RE: 2002 X-type sterio question
So you are wanting to loose the Nav unit and put in an aftermarket radio? It can be done but you will have to buy the heat/AC controls for the normal jags and then get a facia plate for aftermarket radio. Eaby sells the ac/heater control just look under jag, either radio or ac controls. I ordered my fascia plate off of www.installer.com part # 99-9500. I got the wiring kit from ebay using a search for part number PC2-81-4, you can do it in google too. You may also need the antenna adapter part number PC5-100 or look up Hirschmann antenna adapter to motorola. There is also a steering wheel adapter if you want to use the steering wheel controls, search for part number PC99-X47. Hope this helps. I am in the process of putting in an aftermarket nav unit and it took me weeks to find everything. This site, www.nexxia.co.uk, has everything but it cost about $200 to get it from them. I spent less than half that by piecing it together.
