Engine cover doesn't fit? 4.4 V8

Hi Folks

Recently acquired a '05 4.4 V8 Discovery 3. No engine cover so checked the parts manual, decided to grab one off ebay which matched. Looks like the newer part number is slightly different.

Does anyone know what changes were made from Chassis 6A onwards? Cover doesn't seem to clear the airbox?

I purchased LBH500092, however I suspect I needed LBH500012.

Any thoughts? Can it fit and I'm being silly or has there been changes?


Thanks

Thomas

I think you do indeed need #12 for your model year (based on a quick internet search). I can check my 06 if you need. PAGODA

Looks like the one on my "55" plate is the "12" model.

and there was me thinking you would just take a saw to it, to make it look like the picture. Whistle

I guess there could be other features / problems.

I think theres some difference in the moulding, looking at the pictures, so I'll just list it for resale and watch for one coming up!
