Default wherer to find after market radio wiring harness

I've acquired all the parts to install an aftermarket stereo in my 2000 xjr. I've got a Pioneer DEH-X6800BT, stereo, a single din bezel, and the hookups to make the steering wheel buttons work.
The last piece of the puzzle I need is the after market wiring harness adapter to hook up the stereo without splicing any wires, but after searching and searching I just can't seem to find one listed for an xjr.
Any help please?

As far as I know, does not exist for the XJ. They have one for the S-type, but I am unsure if it fits.

Something must exist. Plenty of people have replaced the radio in these cars.

...and plenty of folks like myself have used the wiring diagram from jagrepair.com to splice it.

I'm always reluctant to cut the factory harness unless it's the last resort.

I understand, I tried searching when I did mine about 10 yrs ago and have checked hear and there on occasion since to no avail. Crutchfield won't touch it and I can only say to look in English shops. That's where I found that fascia/bezel for the radio a couple months back that I did a thread on.

Will nothing for another model work? Or perhaps something from a Ford or Lincoln?
