Smile XK8 non-working instrument gauges

I'm working on some prototype dash gauge face replacements, and I would love to find some low cost clusters that I can bust apart and use for test-fit mules.

Absolutely opposed to using working versions, send me your junk !

Jon,

I've added [Region] to your thread title.

Members need to know where in the World they would be sending their gauges.

Default Used Clusters....

Hop over to Ebay and have a look. You probably already know this but the XJ8's use the same cluster, so there are tons of them around. I bought one last year for a project for $39 as I remember- nothing wrong with it, there's just a glut of those parts. I just looked now and saw many for sale, starting at $50 or offer. Besides Pick-n-pull, that's as cheap as it gets.....

Good luckk

thank you very much, I did not know that the xj8's were the same - new to this wonderful Jaguar clan. I'll dig some up. I was concerned about damaging working ones, because I was not SEEING any available online for xk8.

Just to clarify, it is '96-'03 XJ X308s that are the same.

Also, for both XK8s and XJ8s, the scale tick-mark spacing (and shape) changed between '96-'99 and 2000+, so there are two different versions.

The other difference is the word 'Supercharged' is on the tach of all 'R" models.
