Glad to hear this video was helpful! It seems like this is a common problem with many XK8s. Luckily, very easy and straight-forward fix.

Hi Jonathan, maybe your vehicles still have the factory plastic sheathing in place and this is a non-issue for your seats :) Lucky!

On another common Jag interior condition, how is your wood grain? Mine has some fading and was wondering if you had success in restoring them. Perhaps a video on this?

Hi Nathan, unfortunately my wood veneer is suffering from the "cloudiness" issue which I understand is very common for 2000-2001 vehicles. I tried the "hair dryer" method with literally 0 success. Not sure what else to do other than remove all the pieces and take them to a woodworking specialist who would sand them down and re-apply the finish. I suspect that would be costly, haven't explored it at all. Of course, wrapping all the pieces in some nice-looking wrap is an option, but I feel that would take away from the originality and charm of the car.

Hi, Do you know why a motor in both seats activates for three seconds each time I lift the side seat lever to bring the seat back forward?

I have a suspicion - Your headrest is most likely set in a position which is NOT the lowest position possible. Meaning, your headrest is extended up. When you pull the lever for folding the seat, the headrest has to be pulled down to its lowest position so that the seat can fold forward without touching the roof of the car. This is automated. You probably hear the headrest motor spinning, lowering the headrest down. I avoid this by basically keeping the headrests on both seats in the lowest possible position. The seats are tall enough, I see no reason to extend the headrest any further up. When you memorize your driving position with the headrest in its lowest possible location, folding the seat will not cause any motor activation anymore. I hope that makes sense.
