What is this connection? (Near coolant reservoir bottle)
On my '97 XK8, I was replacing the passenger fender from a recent unfortunate incident, and in the process noticed this plug was disconnected from ... ?
Anyone know off-hand what this might be? Maybe an accessory running light which was optional on some models?

Excellent, thank you, it's about what I thought.
It's good to see a bit of fluid in the coolant reservoir, but the level makes me think I should add a bit. Curious that Jaguar decided to hide it behind the wheel well like this.
I was wondering what those submarine-like things were, thank you!
After putting the fender, unfortunately it seems to have been a bit warped during shipping or ... somehow. It's fitting well enough to put her back into service, but I'm going to keep a lookout for a better one. Unfortunately, now all the pinstripes have to come off, I don't think there's any way to transfer them, especially as old as they are. I tried to heat the existing one and slowly remove, but it breaks apart too easily...
