Hi Guys,
1 - I just got my Jag V8s 2014 and I wanted to give it a bit more "peps" with the interior. I am not very familiar with the trims but mine does not have contrast stitching

on certain panels.
I was wondering if i could buy those panels from Jaguar with the contrast stitching?
I tried to look on their sites but i am not clear on which parts number it would be of even if those ones exist in orange contrast.
2 - Also i would love to upgrade the steering wheel with the flat bottom one (no heated version) can someone help me with the part number? I am searching for one with the aluminum trim on it (added the pic below
Can you please help with the steering wheel part number as well as the silver trim?
A Million thanks in advance




Thanks a lot.

 

You can buy all of these in contrasting stitching, but you will likely be better off just buying a new car with it like you want it. You did not specify your colors/vin/etc., so general prices are below.

Each of the door panels will cost you ~ $1,300 USD
The Center Dash Panel pieces are ~ $300-700 USD each depending on Vin/Style/Color
The part over the Glove Box appears to come as a unit with the Instrument Panel at a cost ~$2,200 - 3,500 USD
Steering wheels are (Flat Bottom) - ~ $800 USD

So you quickly get to ~ $7,000 - 8,000 USD for the panels and then the install etc.

Maybe try an upholsterer, who can just redo it? Would likely be easier and much cheaper?

you are right i willl go see an upholstery expert.
thanks for the advice!

 

I would learn to live with it the way God (JLR) intended.
I usually do not look at the stitching while driving

 

Many members of the Corvette Forum, just use a Sharpie like marker, and color the stitches! The pictures after done are excellent! I haven't done it, but would do it, if in your situation!

 

funny you are saying this as i just found out.
will look into this as well!

 

I had thought about that a few months ago, but the plain stitching is grey thread, not white. I don't think the color will come out right. Would be willing to let someone else try it first though!
