Just search for F-Pace accessories. There are many.Do you have the Ebay link?
Do a trial fitting and post a pic. I'd imagine it's an uplift/improvement from plain jane black plastic regardless of the couple of missing buttons.I should have looked closer at these pics and the buttons in my S. I ordered a set and just received them from China (pretty quick I might add). They are exactly as shown but do not account for the extra buttons when you get the 14-way power seats. I don't know whether to send them back or just make do with what's included.
Thanks RoonieQ. Those buttons don't get a lot of use but they get seen everytime I open the doors.:laugh:Looks sensational PaulMack! It sure picks the otherwise drab area up.![]()
Jag should be ashamed to have released them so unadorned and plain. And like PaulMack said...you may rarely touch these button, but they are the first thing you see when opening a door.That is a drab area, especially for those of us with black interiors. This post got me thinking, maybe paint the plastic backing for the switches, in RED, to match the little red "S" bits on and in the vehicle. Black surround, black controls, on a bright red background. Might do a bit of photochopping on that idea....
In Jaguar's defense, they probably would prefer to keep that area plain so that it isn't the first thing you see when you open the door. On the other hand, I've found adding chrome trim around the cup holder to improve the center console tremendously.Jag should be ashamed to have released them so unadorned and plain.

Be careful theRAMSTA ! Someone might come along and ask you to get back "on topic" ! Seeings how this thread is about "Seat Control Bling" !In Jaguar's defense, they probably would prefer to keep that area plain so that it isn't the first thing you see when you open the door.

To me, one of the worst offenders that pegs my cheap meter is the std. rear climate control unit. It could almost not look more down market. The upgraded market is marginally better (shape and bit more bling). But for a rear seat passenger, looking around when sitting in the back simply doesn't measure up to the vehicle's asking price. Same with the XE.In Jaguar's defense, they probably would prefer to keep that area plain so that it isn't the first thing you see when you open the door.

Please stay on topic, chrome around cup holders clearly has no similarities with chrome around seat controls.In Jaguar's defense, they probably would prefer to keep that area plain so that it isn't the first thing you see when you open the door.

Jag's bean counters would prefer to keep all areas plain (and cheaply kitted out). Don't defend them. It's cost cutting at the sacrifice of being special. And unfortunately those choices serve to erode what the marque has historically had as a distinct reputation in the marketplace - comfortable, affordable luxury, in a driver's car - Grace, Pace, Space. Just like the lack of embellishment on the cup holder rings that you thought needed an uplift....because they doIn Jaguar's defense, they probably would prefer to keep that area plain so that it isn't the first thing you see when you open the door.
