Hey everyone!

Just waiting on one more person interested in doing a group buy for the parts. Is anyone else out there interested in getting the discount by ordering 5? There are 4 names so far.

Any update from anyone who has done this how it is holding up "long-term" after installation?

Thanks!

Download PDF file from message #51. Show your mechanic or service

manger downloaded file, they should give you an estimate.



Long term test? Everything working as it should.

nytojerz... I just went to a mechanic with the file that George was nice enough to create and asked them if they would be willing to do it. If you cannot find anyone in the NJ area willing to do this (probably won't be the case)... I have already gotten "East Coast Jaguar" in Wilmington, DE willing to do this for me.

I know this is a little far from you, but perhaps if we both take our cars there the same time, they will give a discount for doing two cars at once. Just a thought. Good luck and I hope we can find a fifth person!

I don't think there is a kit out there which includes all the parts (LED taillights, wiring harness and load resistors). For the LED Taillights and wiring harness, I would contact Dan at nallyjagparts to get pricing and parts. As for instructions and load resistors required, I would see George's instructions on message #51. As for a shop to install.....I would have the shop look at George's instructions to determine if they can install or not.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but one question I have. Does "george's way" show up on the onboard computer as an error code?

No. If you follow my instruction, everything should work out fine.

Hey George, took possession of my XK recently and dying to do this mod. Does the $1800-2000 figure include the labor that you did? Could you give me a price breakdown parts vs labor? Just an estimate would be great. Thanks so much.

i am INTERESTED but not sure I am quite ready to plop down the 2k at this exact moment in time. What would be the final pricing and.... how the heck would labor be included? We are all over the place, aren't we?

why is this so expensive ,in the uk the light units are less than £500 a pair ,reading the posts it seams that all you need are the right resistors which cost penny's.

i've seen 2010/11 units on ebay for less than £100 .there's one on now for £98 buy now

I was wondering if you could send me a link for the tail lights you found. If its that much cheaper on ebay.uk I'd gladly buy from there.

Cheers.
