RE: pics of my 2003 S type 4.2
Hi, the HID lights came stock. I am actually upgrading the bulbs to 8000K temperature. Stock is about 5000K, upgradint this will give them a more blueish look. Those are port holes above the tire. There are just stick ons but I like the look of them. You can find them on ebay.
I have already got the mesh grille, but I need a shop to install it because the stock grill needs to be cut off. I also tinted the windows, added door pillars, got an intake as well. My favorite addition has to be the exhaust. It is a 2 1/2 inch cat back dual exhaust. 2 flowmaster delta force race mufflers single chamber, this car is extrememly loud, It was so loud that I had to reinstall both resonators.
The car is currently in the shop for some fixtures. There was squeeking in the steering wheel. A clicking sound when I turned on the heater. I needed my trunk lubed and the most major problem was my transmission. It has a hard kick going from first to second gear, at about 10 mph. The shop fixed all the other problems, but they couldnt find a solution for the transmissions kick, so I was informed that they are installing a brand new transmission and the car will be ready on monday!

Excellent deal you got! I bought my 2003 S-Type V8 in Sept 2005 with more miles and about the same price. You did good. Can't say I really like those added details. Your wheels are different than mine too. I like the silver color, it looks really good.
I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine! Check out this thread with pictures of mine:

I was under the impression that the lights came like that on the 03+ S-type.

Well, I said I was under the impression, not that I was sure. I've been proven wrong.

So, let me recap, projectors can only be had with HID’s and are not offered as standard equipment?
IMO that is a little strange most automotive manufacturers usually offer projectors as standard euipment then the HID's are considered upgrades.

I got the car back from the shop. It drives so perfectly now. Repairs were worth $9,000! I didn't pay a dime. New tranny too.
I also just installed the intake, wow, great added power as well.
As for the HID's, I bought new bulbs for them, but I do not know how to remove the headlight so I need help.

Yours looks awesome. I actually really like the wheels on mine. They look similar to mercedes. Have you had any problems with yours?

I love the car. Fun to drive andfun to detail. I joined a local Jaguar club and I even entered mine in a Concours last Sept. I got a 99.96 out of 100!
