Side Marker Lights for Jaguar XJ8

As the owner of a XJ8 luxury sedan, you have a vehicle with attractive lines and elaborate safety features. Among these safety attributes, side marker lights feature prominently without taking away from the mileage or streamlined exterior.

How do Jaguar XJ8 side marker lights work?

Side marker lights allow other drivers and pedestrians to spot moving cars from any angle in the dark. The Jaguar XJ8 has either four or six side marker lights depending on the model. In some models, the front turn signal light acts as an additional side marker light due to its position. In all Jaguar XJ8 cars, these lights sit in the front and rear trim on both sides of your vehicle. Their parts include:

  • Lamp: This usually refers to either the outer side or both parts of the lamp assembly. Because the outer cover tends to crack more easily than other parts, you can find listings for just this half of the lamp.
  • Bulb: As with any light bulb, this part will wear out over time and require replacement. You can easily find one or multiple bulbs as standalone parts. However, if both the bulb and lamp are damaged, you will usually need to replace them separately. As with any lamp, bulbs are usually not included.
  • Mounting bracket: This attachment piece connects to your car wiring and keeps the side marker light in place.
  • Trim: This chrome-colored part fills the doors interior beneath the side marker light for a secure, snug fit. You can find separate listings for the trim if needed. A snug fit helps improve mileage and appearance by streamlining this Jaguar part.
How can you find XJ8 side marker light parts?

Finding the correct light is simple with the right information in hand. Here is what youll need to consider to find the right listings.

  • Year: The Jaguar XJ8 represents a range of luxury cars within the Jaguar XJ family. Depending on the model year, the side marker light placement, size, and number will vary considerably.
  • Options: Each year, Jaguar offers cars with updated trims and add-ons. Upgraded engine or transmission types also come with upgraded exteriors for improved mileage and appearance. Always consider the specific trim, such as Jaguar Executive or Jaguar Sovereign.
  • Location: Depending on year and trim, side marker lights will have slightly different sizes and locations on the body. Left, right, front, and rear lights are not interchangeable, although they look the same. For cars with turn signals that also act as side marker lights, make sure to note this location carefully. This is not the same as the side marker lights located behind the side mirrors.
  • Aftermarket customization: In some cases, certain aftermarket body customization may obscure built-in side marker lights. If so, you may be legally required to add custom side marker lights. You can find exterior add-on listings to meet this requirement.
