Wanted: 2004 Engine Tray part source
Hi,
I have a 2004 XJ VDP, and am missing the big engine tray from underneath. I have read in the forum of others buying a new one for a reasonable price ($130 in a few cases) and referrals to parts sites, but I can't find one on any sites I check.
Anyone have any ideas on where to find one?
Thanks!

Thanks trosty. I'm only considering it because the independent shop I am working with thinks it is important. They have impressed me with their skills, as they found an issue with my car that had apparently been amiss for YEARS, and other shops had consistently missed.
Seems that there was a blockage in the rubber tube to drain the sunroof, and water infiltrated under the rear seat, severely corroding an electrical connector. The corrosion caused disruption of the electrical signals from height sensors, shocks, wheel sensors, etc, which the previous owner spent thousands trying to repair by replacing all those parts. These guys found it in about 90 minutes and have permanently solved the problem. So if they want me to find an engine undertray, I'll give it a try.
180K on your 2004 XJ8? That is awesome. My VDP is at 93K, and when this repair is complete, I"m hoping I'll get years of service like you have.
