Default Any Brits or Euros out there that can help?

I'm frustrated trying to improve my Jaguar XJL (X351 long wheelbase) because it is so nearly perfect. One little item, however, bothers me greatly, namely the rather ugly warning label on the passenger side sun visor on cars for U.S.A. delivery regarding the proper use of child safety seats. My understanding is that Jaguar cars delivered to the UK, and other Euro countries, are not encumbered by such duplicate warnings already contained in the car owner's manual. Please provide me the correct Jaguar part number for an Ivory color Jaguar Suedecloth covered passenger sun visor (right side of a vehicle with left hand drive), and perhaps a source that is willing to sell such a part at a reasonable (below list price). Thank you for helping a fellow Jaguar owner!

I wouldn't categorise myself as a 'Brit' or a 'Euro' but if an Englishman can help .......

This is the standard label on a UK specification Jaguar Sun Visor:

I'd expect this is similar to the one on a US specification vehicle?

I hope I didn't offend anyone, that certainly wasn't my intention
I'm referring to the warning label on the right hand side visor on North American cars that are visible when the visor is in its normally stored position against the headliner, not the one on the vanity mirror cover. I need the part number of the Ivory Jaguar Suedecloth RH visor (driver side in the UK), assuming the visor surface normally facing the driver in the stored position doesn't exhibit a warning label. Thank you for your response.

John,

No offence taken.

I think this is the P/N you want for the Ivory suede cloth (note the change at VIN V19414):

Graham-
You are obviously the man to go to for info. I think the part number I want, according to the information provided, is 62D6280NUG, since my '11 model Jaguar XJL (X351 long wheelbase) VIN ends in V03801. The car was reportedly manufactured 11/01/2009 and exported from the UK to the USA 05/24/2010. Please send me a private message as to where I might obtain said part. Thank you so very much!

A brief update; my final solution for the ugly U.S, warning label on the drivers side sun visor was to find, purchase and instal an ivory, genuine leather combo C/D, credit card and pen holder that not only covers the label, blends with and upgrades the interior, but adds practicality as well. Sorry, but I lost the records of this purchase so I cannot provide specific information on this item, but I'm sure anyone who wants one can find it on the internet.

John,

Have a look at Post #8 in this thread:

https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...riends-111945/

WhiteXKR found a product to clean off the warning label.
