2003 new radio facia adapter
I have found two possible solutions to putting in a new single DIN head unit, and wonder if anyone has used either of these:
CT24JG01 Jaguar S Type X Type Fascia Adaptor online at Nexxia UK
Or
In Car Entertainment, Bluetooth & Multimedia fitting solutions and interfaces
The incartec looks right, but is L119 plus plus, ouch.
I'm going to an installer to do the wiring to maintain the steering wheel radio controls, expect there will also be a harness purchase too.
I've read the extensive posting re the 99 radio, but the 03 is evidently different. Crutchfield doesn't stock anything for my year.
Thoughts anyone? Thanks.

I can't imagine the piece in that Nexxia link you posted actually working (1) it is for an x-type and (2) it doesn't look anything like what you need...
However the other piece looks like the 1997 fascia that you need. See if you can find that piece on eBay using part number LJA6318AB... it is from an earlier 1997 xk8 and then you purchase an adapter from Nexxia as well (BTW, the radio fascias are the same from late 1997 thru 2006 ---- your 2003 shouldn't be any different). I called Jaguar Heaven in California and they had one for me... maybe give them a try.
Read through my posts HERE on page 5 and HERE ALSO, then also read through the entire posts... if you have any specific questions, please let me know.

It's buried, gents, but I'll keep looking for receipts, took forever to get delivered... - I bought it back when H20Boy did a writeup - was a fascia for another model, and moved the switches to another panel - something like that. The only part that bugs me, is that with the Pioneer unit I installed, it hits the edge when the front flips open - so, probably time to find or modify this one to give me 1/3 more inch clearance along the bottom edge.
