You're 100% correct they look great -i bought a set for my XF and they transformed the wing mirrors . I bought mine from WISH £28 plug and play took me 15 minutes to fit both. ❤❤❤
@@Millmiglia001 still great for the money, but they’re cheaper on AliExpress, think they’re about £15 now. Either way, you’re happy 😁👍🏻 Thank you for commenting.
Thanks for your video, i bought a pair from ebay for just under 20 quid and watched your video 2 or 3 times and changed mine in minutes. Big improvement 👍👍
Ordered mine from Ali Express, came within 10 days. Slight mod to the one you had with the connector now on the side the same as the factory fitted one, so fitted even better. Brilliant vid, I watched it a dozen times before attempting it, but it was exactly as you had described. I absolutely love this mod, thank you for posting. 👍
Best to upgrade the wing mirror covers next to Carbon fibre finish. As always we appreciate folks like you who take the time to do this for our benefit.
Thanks for the video , I fitted these today to my 2014 XKR , I don’t think I would have tried if it wasn’t for your video .. thanks for taking the time , really appreciated 👍
Just an update to this, you can now buy a new version with a “welcome blue light” - it’s listed as Jaguar XF Blue Dynamic LED” on eBay. I’ve got the same as you though, and this video helped greatly getting the covers off, so thanks.
There is also a smoked version now that I really like. I’m not too keen on the blue welcome flash ones for my car, if it was red then it would match the callipers then 😂 I’m glad you found the video useful, that’s why I put these up.
Do it if you haven't already! I got a set from under £16 on Aliexpress, they look really black when off, same colour as my XF, and the whole job was done in 5 minutes. Has to be the best mod possible for the money, inexpensive and really effective, much easier to see in the daytime.
That clip at 3:45 was a bugger on my dads XJ me and my dad were baffled as to why the new piece wouldn't fit, we put the old one back on and noticed it, wish we had seen this first
Thanks so much, this was perfect, bought these as a cheaper alternative to one original used one (needed to sort it before MOT retest so bought from eBay). For what it's worth, that nice looking screwdriver you got with yours is now a T10 ended Alan key. Dunno if it's any good though as I used my own screwdriver
Oh ok, that must be a cheaper option for them to supply, it’s only being used 4 times so doesn’t need to be so good anyway lol. Glad you got your car ready for the MOT
Thank you so much for the tutorial, I am definitely getting these for my XFR! I just noted one thing that may have only been only missing due to editing... Did you put the screws back in on the driver-side? Probably not the first person to mention it.
Lol well spotted, I did indeed put them back in, but afterwards lol. 🤦🏼♂️ thanks for spotting it and letting me know just in case, can imagine those ending up in the tyres. Definitely a great little upgrade for sure.
@@tootsboots1 you’re one of many bud, I used the wrong clip where I test fitted it, I did actually fit the screw. But it’s good to see you paying attention 😉👍🏻
Hi I've just got mine and it's got an extra green wire coming off it and apparently it fits on to the puddle light but not sure how to and which wire to splice it to any ideas and got any links to do it thanks.👍
Oh you got the one that flashes blue on unlocking the car. Fit it to the live wire of the puddle light if you want that feature. I’m not sure what colour it is until I check. I’m changing my puddle light soon, so can check then. If one of them is brown or part brown then That will “probably” be the live wire.
@@69racer69 yeah it is the one with the blue light flashes across didn't realise I would have some adaption to it just wasn't sure on were it go's I'm on a jaguar xf forum they said it splices on to puddle light but didn't say how I can get to it or get it out but your video was very helpful fitting it and it looks well cool on its a nice touch thanks.👍
@LionKing30 yes I did pulled a bit of the plastic sheath back on the black wire with white line and soldered it to and covered it back over looks really affectitive got video not sure how to upload it though.
Depends on what XF you’re going for? Look out for battery and alternator, the XF’s are battery eaters and throws up countless faults just because the massive battery can’t keep up. The alternators wear if the battery isn’t changed. Front lower suspension arm bushes are prone to wear, but they aren’t that expensive to change. Check to see if the timing chain (100k) or cam belts are changed if you near the service mileage. Check the boot operates from the key fob as the wire loom can wear on the boot hinge. I’ve never had the problem but others have. But to be honest, I’ve hardly ever had any issues with either of the XFR’s I’ve had apart from the battery. Oh if you’re getting an XFR, just check for supercharger noise, they always have a tapping, but it’s shouldn’t be excessive, even then, a coupling and bearing change isn’t the end of the world at all.
@@69racer69 Wow, thanks for the prompt reply Racer69, I might be buying a 2017 XF 25D AWD 2.0d (240) 34k mileage - so no where near yours in terms of performance. This will be via a main dealership and my first jag but the dealers are not the most helpful so reaching out to experts like yourself. In fact not seen the car yet as I’m in London and the car is in Newcastle, only videos sent to me. My current car broke down yesterday and the RAC said don’t buy a jag due to reliability issues and it being a money pit. Should I ask them about the battery and other mechanical issues you mentioned to me? Any other advise or what I should look out for mate as concerned before I make this considerable purchase? Ps. If I do buy this jag, I will definitely be watching your videos again for some home upgrades like yours. Thanks
@@jasonpeters7614 they’re definitely not money pits that’s for sure. They can be expensive to maintain if paying all the main dealer crap they charge you for that you don’t need yet, just have your whits about you and don’t change the tyres when they wear down to 5mm of tread or break discs when they have 1.8mm of wear. That’s what they are know for doing. Question everything and ask do I need it done now or not. The actual cars are very strong and have great build quality, you will love it I’m sure.
@@69racer69 thank you for all your advise - excited but nervous at the same time as have always gone for German cars. Will ask them about all the stuff you mentioned for sure including age/life of battery. Will keep you posted and hopefully share a video with you.
@@69racer69 I don't doubt for a second that they may very well be an improvement, but here in the very less than free UK we still suffer from some vestiges of our membership of the EU, one of which is the need to have the letters EU stamped/moulded/branded/printed in, or on every bloody thing we buy! I would not want to fall foul of the increasingly bureaucratic clowns we have here masquerading as a police force. I am not criticizing your suggestion - simply asking a question before I zoom over to my browser and order a pair! 😉😉

They are only £20 off Ebay now and they have improved the design a little bit too, such a good upgrade and made easy thanks to this video

Had my car for 3 years now and just realized they had those due to this video.
Yeah they’re an easy thing to miss aren’t they.
Mine arrives today,
Will try it on my F-Pace.
Thanks for the review and installation!
Just done mine on your recommendation on my XJR and they look great looks like they've changed the retaining clip but fits perfect
Fantastic, mine are still working fine, but may get the new smoked ones soon as they’re so cheap and easy to fit. Glad you like them Richard.
Damn, will definetely buy it ! It is so easy to change and it gives another look to our XF-R !

Thanks for the video guys, i was looking to do this to my 2010 XF, did you get any warning lights on the dash by any chance?.
No warnings at all buddy, I would have showed it in the video if there are any problems. 😁👍🏻
4:27 You didn't install back the 2 screws that support the LED indicators
I did it after I popped the cover back on, I forgot to film it. Thanks for noticing and letting me know though just in case I forgot 😁👍🏻
Great video, do you know if they will fit a Jaguar XE ? and have you got a link to where you got them, cheers.
