Default Compartment in engine bay

What is the small compartment in the engine bay on my 2002 Vanden Plas for? It is located on passenger side by windscreen underhood. Has a cover and nothing inside but plastic, no slots or filter etc..

It's for the Jag tool kit, see photo.

They don't supply them here in the US.

Thanks, any idea where a person could pick one up? I love car shows and clubs. Any suggestions regarding Jaguar Clubs/ Shows etc...? This is a very nice forum.
My wife drove our used 2002 to work today for the first time. She called to tell me this was the nicest car we have ever owned. I hope I get to drive it now that she has figured that out.

You'll probably find it easier to source one in the UK than in the US.

Here's one on eBay UK today (Aug 16 2012):
