Hi Martin Ball ( @ball )
Here are a couple of photos of the my Tonneau Cover fitted that doesn’t have any poppers – it just has Velcro on the boot side and nothing to clip the cabin side down
Laurence JonesKeymasterAh, good point Woodsmoke ( @woodsmoke ), I wonder now if Gerben Haringsma ( @gerbenharingsma ) meant the front or rear ones.
The front quarter light rubber on my Cabriolet needs replacing, so you say they’re the same part number both side.

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi All,
I have placed the order to have these window rubbers remanufactured, and hope to have thme available in the iste shop by the end of August 2017.
Please click on the product in the SITE SHOP where you can go on the notification list.
Cheers,
Laurence
P.S. If there is sufficient interest I will look to get the Targa rubbers reengineered too – so let me know if this is of interest.
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Martin,
I will do that tonight for you
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Mark Thorley that’s a good point about fabric shrinking. Martin Ball trimmers are probably aware of that fact but it might be worth him mentioning it to them.
Cheers,
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Mark Thorley glad to see you’re having fun.
I do like this photo of yours
I spent Saturday working on my XJS Couple (now finished replacing all the interior) and on my XJ-SC Cabriolet (swapping over hoods from the donor car). Then today all of us went to Cheshire Steam Show and had a good look at Traction engines and various Classic Cars – but as there was 6 of us we went in the Land Rover (and appreciated the Air Con).
Laurence JonesKeymasterMight be worth noting. I have two different Tonneau covers.
One has the Velcro strip around the boot edge, but nothing on the inside of the car edge (no Velcro and no poppers). When fitted this tends to allow wind to get up under the Tonneau cover on the inside of the car edge, so I intend to fit female poppers on that edge myself (if I can find suitable that mate with the male studs).
The other has no Velcro strip, but has poppers on the boot edge and the inside of the car edge.
If you follow Alex’s note above, you’d end up with best of both worlds – Velcro around the boot edge and poppers on the inside of the car.

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Malcolm Wyatt ,
Here are some photos of the bonnet and doors
Please let me know if you are interested
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterYes please Russ @russccptd-net , we could add that as a short article for others to read in the future (as these discussion posts get lower and lower on a list of 100s over time).
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterIt’s the thought that counts Gerben 🙂
Site Shop has now been launched – please take a look
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Gerben,
If you can hang on a few weeks it might be worth taking a look at what I’m hoping to introduce as stock in the Site Shop I’ve just launched.

Unfortunately at this time Martin Mere Wetlands Centre are unable to allow access to their Café without everyone paying nearly £12 entrance fee. At some time in the future they intend to allow access, so hopefully we’ll be able to do a Meet Up there.

Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Malcolm,
I’m heading over there on Wednesday evening so I’ll take some photos and get in touch.
Gearbox has been sold however.
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterHi Malcolm,
Here is the photo you uploaded
I’m breaking a 1984 cabriolet – let me know if there are any bits you need and if they’re still on the car then maybe I can be of some help Breaking CabrioletLaurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterGlad someone reads my posts 🙂
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterFair point Bob.
Once the garage has removed the engine/gearbox I think I’ll go over and take whatever bits and bats still left off the car – my wife will be pleased 🙂
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterLaurence JonesKeymasterIf you’re able to upload some photos to your photo album Mark, you could either add them to this post or I can for you.
Laurence
Laurence JonesKeymasterThanks Mark for that bit of trivia – but…..
Who drive their jaguar most themselves in, say, the first 3 years of ownership.
Just a thought 🙂
Laurence JonesKeymasterThat’s great news Trevor, really pleased about that news.
Wish I had time to go on a few day/week tour in one of our XJS, but have to restrict it to annaul holidays or long bank holiday weekends for now.
