Default 1998 XK8

Both of my badges were stolen off my car and I am having trouble locating some replacements. I was in hopes of finding some in a salvage yard but thought some members may have some or know where I can find some. My XK8 convertible is a 4.0 and has the green backgrounds as it is not supercharged. Please help.

Ray

Welcome to the forum Ray J III,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.


Sorry to hear about the badges. Unfortunately they are attractive to 'collectors' and also becoming harder to source. Try forum Sponsor S N G Barratt:

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk8-xkr-x100-17/ to the XK8/XKR forum for help, advice and information. The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

Welcome.

Some people need a real "slap".

Good luck with the search.

I have a 2000, and "collectors" are the bane of my life! I have found the badges relatively easy to source on eBay, but "easy" and "cheap" aren't synonyms. It helps if you are looking internationally (the badges are the same for LHD & RHD, I believe!) to remember that we Brits call the "hood" the "bonnet" and we call the "trunk" the "boot".

Here are a couple to get you started!

Bonnet

Boot

PS: Welcome!
