Default Sat Nav in New Zealand..?

I recently purchased a 2003 XKR from Japan (I'm in New Zealand).
Does anyone know how I might get the navigation system to work here?

You need a disc for the system but they have not produced updated disc's for several years so it's worthless. In your 2003 "if" you have a disc all you can do is get the clock to work but without a disc even that will not work.

The disc's are available on ebay for anywhere from $170 to $220, search "Jaguar Navigation Disc" and they will come up.

I just removed the NAV system from my 03 and installed a triple gauge setup, if you want I'll sell you my disc must cheaper than ebay. PM me if interested.

Welcome to the forum.

This question has been raised before https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...-dvd-56896/and the answer is there was never a NZ map disc for the Alpine Nav in the X100.

Basically, your choices are:

1. Leave it as is (non-working).
2. Replace with a three gauge cluster.
3. Several people have replaced the OEM SatNav with a Garmin, Tom Tom, etc.

It is as StuG says, three options. Where in NZ are you?

Chris,

How can Jeff390 answer that question? He hasn't got SatNav.

Hey Jandreu, please tell me more about the triple gauge setup? How much was it. How much to install etc?

Cheers Jeff.

Hey Chris, they're quite right, i can't be sure exactly where I am because the damn SATNAV won't go. I think it might be Nelson though.

This is my 03 after conversion from a NAV dash.

Jeff, you will need to source a new dash panel, a triple guage cluster and get whitexkr's wiring kit. http://www.thejagwrangler.com
Cost depends on how much you end up paying for the used parts.

Hardest part is finding a center panel to match the rest of your dash or buying a complete matched set.

Keep an eye on eBay and the forum marketplace list for folks parting out cars.
