Sunscreen - OE and the OE Supplier
As I was heading to sun and high temperatures, I was very concerned by the number of posts from US members about dash leather lifting with the heat.
The XK sunscreen P/N C2P23639 is unobtainable through UK Jaguar Dealers and a search of mainland European Dealers in France, Spain, Italy and Germany also came up zero.
I eventually found one stocked by Jaguar Columbia in South Carolina at $61.40 and had it shipped to the UK. Shipping and import charges added almost 50% to the cost.
The sunscreen is made in eight panels and folds for carrying in the supplied plastic cover. Naturally a perfect fit - unfold inside the vehicle, lift up against the glass and secure by lowering the sunvisors. It has effectively kept the interior cool even with temperature in the 90's.
The instruction leaflet shows the sunscreen is manufactured by Covercraft Industries LLC in the US:

Covercraft list two options for the XK. The UVS100 ($61) which is the OE pattern and a lower cost Flex Shade rollup type at $44.

I bought the logo sticker on Ebay. It's available in various sizes and colors. Just search for Jaguar Leaper logo decal sticker.

Me, too, for $47 delivered but the price has gone up.
Alternatively, you can buy this one for $40 and add the logo if you need it. It looks similar to the OEM Jaguar shade but is thinner.
