Default Before I button this up...

Just pulled the left front wheel well liner to repair a leak in the windshield washer reservoir tubing. Checking the aft side of the wheel well, I see an empty shelf. Am I missing anything or was this intentionally left vacant for smuggling Cuban cigars, etc.?

That’s the Purge Valve. It looks like your is in place and I do recall an odd bracket angle/mount when I replaced mine.

Let me see see if I have a pic...

Reverend has quite a few video's showing these and other areas as he replaces components, check his DIY videos on YouTube at sam1174 he shows the removal of Drivers side wheel well liner.

Thanks 03 XKR. Reverend's car shows an empty bracket/shelf also, so I guess I'm ok to button everything back up. His too-clean wheel well liner is a bit disturbing, however; it must never see a wet street... lol...
