I’ve found that clear Gorilla glue works on plastics that don’t hold well with Testors model cement. Will still leave a repair line. Obviously, the Lincoln LS solution looks so much better, Nice find!

PM me if interested.
sorry to ask but do you still have that demister panel for sale?

Check gentlemenofsalvage. They used to have a few. Correction on vendor. Autoreservejaguar. They have a few demister panels that will maybe fit your car. Here is one that will get you to their listings. https://www.autoreservejaguar.com/s-...-charcoal.html

What year is your S-type? The part changed with the X202 facelift...

I too live in Arizona. The sun is very brutal. Looking for something to fix/ cover my panel.

Did the tabs line up? I have a 2003 S-Type with a bad panel. This would be great for a replacement.

What model Jag do you have? Wondering if it will fit my 2003 S-Type.

The tabs from Lincoln LS do not match, I finally found a used 2005 S-type panel (in perfect shape) and only add a hole for the sun/light sensor, besides this hole it fits perfectly.

Thank you so much for posting info about the dash mat. I have the same problem. Bought one of these dash mats from dashcare for my 2003 and couldn’t be happier. P.S. I live in Beautiful Western Australia.

I bought the dash mat as well. Very happy with it, even though I ordered not quite the right color... But still quite satisfied with it!
