Parametric Jaguar Model

As somewhat-informal CAD head for team 751, I'm currently working on updating our library of parts, including the electronics components. While I've managed to get fairly good models of most of them, I haven't been able to find a decent Jaguar model. I've found one from team 1323, but that has the mounting hole placement messed up. In addition, it's non-parametric, and the mesh is sufficiently messed up that I can't run FeatureWorks on it (I'm using SolidWorks.) The only other one I can find is on 3dvia, and can only be downloaded as .3dxml, which SolidWorks can't import.

So, my question: does anyone have an accurate, parametric model that they'd be willing to let us use? Being correct is the top priority, followed by being parametric. SolidWorks format is preferable, but anything I can use, really. Surfacing is not my greatest skill, and I'm not very confident in my ability to turn out a precise model, which is important because our electronics group wants to start using CAD for the wiring layout. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
