Installed the twin sun blind/shades on the rear package shelf. I've had them on-hand for a couple years, but only just took out the back seat and package shelf when I replaced the fuel pumps. So this was a good time.
The holes are already in the package shelf underside, and one just has to poke the mounting studs through the vinyl and bolt it on.
If one has the "premium" sound system with the package shelf mounted subwoofer, then the two piece shade/blind is required.
For the Nimbus Grey interior, those part numbers are:
LH side - Nimbus Grey
HNA1823AALFJ
RH side - Nimbus Grey
HNA1822AALFJ
Can be ordered as a set:
Old part number JLM11832LFJ
New part number JLM21262LFJ
First, here is a photo of the package shelf with a set of blinds installed. This is not from my car, but shows how the pair of shades must be installed on an X300 with premium sound and the subwoofer in the package shelf.
Here are some photos of the blinds installed on my 1997 XJR6. You'll note some blemishes on the screen material that look like there may be something like paint on them or they have holes, but this actually is where the Nimbus Grey colored coating has flaked off the "netting" a little bit and is highlighted by the flash. It isn't very noticeable in normal lighting.
Again, if you can find the parts, this is a very easy installation once you get the package shelf out, which requires removing the rear seat back.
The holes for the studs to mount the blinds are already in the package shelf, and you simply have to poke through the vinyl covering and bolt them on. No drilling or cutting required.
