Just a light hearted thread for us non techie types who like to add a little fun to the car. Here are a few pics of mods that require no expertise to fit or attach, are inexpensive (no carbon fibre to be seen) but still make me smile. If you have any suggestions would love to see them...

Puddle lights look great. About £17

Fitted boot liner with trim to match interior and your choice of script only £50

These are fire and forget but ensure you do not mix up the restocking set as they come in pairs - cloud busters and traffic dispersal. If you buy none OEM it will not invalidate your warranty :).

Smile on....its the summer !
 
Thanks to the OP for this thread as never thought of puddle lights before. Have just ordered some and should get them tomorrow.

The only silly thing I have bought so far is a ‘fire missiles’ button which my family think is hilarious. Went for the black version . D5ECFBEC-AC13-439D-BEAA-7440BBBA65E5.jpeg
 
I got the in control app to work with Alexa. I can now start the car by asking Jaguar remote to start the engine. There is a Jaguar remote skill in the amazon store designed by Chris Davies. It works well. Its a bit of fun to start the car by talking to Alexa at home or if I am out use the Alexa app on my phone.

How cool is that!!! I never even knew that existed.
 
I've purchased the AA Wireless device from Indiegogo, which allows your phone to connect wirelessly to the head unit for Android Auto. This means I don't have to plug it in every time I get in the car, it connects to the module and starts automatically.

It takes a while to receive it, but it's a great system.

First mod I did was change the horrible yellow footwell lights. 10 seconds on drivers side quite a bit longer on passenger ..lol
Oh and the puddle lights, originally to leds then to Jaguar design.
Dashcam too

Really? Works for me.
Could try typing the following in which this is the dearest but only one that has a question answered saying they do actually project the logo.
Others may be same and cheaper if want to gamble?
PS you don’t need the supplied cables as originals fit

Thanks
Yes, don't know why I don't see the link.
Rather buy via ebay, but no one seems to sell. Might not bother, not sure a new set will last any longer...

What wrong with them?
Have you removed the logo insert to see if that’s what’s actually gone? They just pull out!
If so screwed as I can’t find these anywhere. If ok and it’s the light itself then simple enough.
Just removing the logo at least leaves you with white bright puddle lights better than jags.
Ps they are the same as fitted to BMW and Mini just different logos
 
Found them!!
Got to be worth a shot of it is actually the films

Thanks.

China, hmm, have ordered. Yes, it's the little logo film, just flakes apart. Going to see if the wife can make something that small on her fancy craft cutter ..
