Hopefully rodents didn't occupy, build housing developments and eat the wiring and other tasty bits of the XJ. Many a vehicle parked for more than a few days in these parts have met their demise by the furry Occupy [make & model here] groups. 

I've constantly battled mice in our vehicles in the CA Bay Area, it's certainly not just an issue in the desert, though I'm guessing it's probably worse there. 

The only method I found that works is a "mouse moat" (I first learned about this at https://ucnrs.org/mice-barrier-cars/), I just use 14" aluminum flashing propped up on the inside with wood blocks, even for vehicles stored inside a garage. A lot cheaper to make, and less time-consuming even with set up and take down every few days, than repairing mouse damage and invasions!
