I looked into fitting them to my XFR some time ago, and I came to the conclusion that there was no way of fitting/mounting them that looked any good. Instead I went with DIY Cree eagle eyes, see here: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...highlight=DRLs
Cost a fraction of the Philips, only problem you might have is finding someone to do the wiring, the rest is fairly easy.

your guide was very helpful with my own retro-fit on my 2015 sportbrake,
i do however have a problem,
i have the correct modules for my car , i have the can bus link connected, and have all the wiring with the correct mirrors etc,
however
the system will not function and i get a ' fault light ' in the right hand mirror after the initial overtake symbol lights up on ignition ( self test )
i have tried other modules and it make no difference
both modules are seen and report 100% working in SDD , i have tried the right hand mirror flash , but all i get is a right hand mirror fault light in that mirror
the left hand mirror flashes to life fro one second and then nothing
i do get a ' no coms to left hand mirror ' on the OBD2 reader , but can confirm coms and physical wiring is good
any idea's ?
