Beautiful car....... it's a great colour combo. I really like the light cream interior with the dark piping..... my Portfolio has very dark brown seats with black piping...... who signed off on that one at Jaguar ?
Good to see you have already worked out that Jaguar didn't make any huge leaps forward in audio integration, so you'll have to add the ACM, although of course as you have rear entertainment there is a $10 route, but you have a wire running down the middle of the car.
Also, it's worth checking inside the center cubby, on the left hand side (nearest the driver)........ is there a 3.5mm input jack..... ? ie![](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/attachments/xj-xj6-xj8-xjr-x350-x358-28/58785-count-me-my-birthday-present-myself-sarc-4188-albums-posts-1216-picture-imag0189-12003.jpg?dateline=1381892724)
Also, do you have this concealed button in the cubby hole on the left of the steering wheel ??

I have now seen more than 3 cars with exactly the same modifications, so I think perhaps this was an underground dealer "option" on cars that have rear entertainment to enable an aux in without going the ACM route. It allows you to connect an aux in at the center console, then using the magic button you can cycle through the input selections on the rear entertainment and select aux 1... this then plays the sounds coming from the aux in in the cubby.
