GENERAL BODY SERVICE INFORMATION
RIGHT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES
The XJ Body Components procedures in this sec-
tion were developed on a left hand drive (LHD) vehi-
cle. Unless a component is unique to a right hand
drive vehicle, it will not be specifically covered in this
section, i.e. cargo barrier. In general, components on
left hand drive vehicles will be located on the oppo-
site side in right hand drive vehicles.
LABELS/DECALS/PLATESÐXJ
Most of the labels that are affixed to the vehicles
(Fig. 1 through 5) contain safety or maintenance in-
formation. If a body component or window glass are
replaced, a replacement label should be installed. In
most cases, label location on right hand drive (RHD)
vehicles will be on the opposite side of the vehicle.Refer to the Introduction of this manual for more
information involving labels and plates.
