An alternative to consider would be to get a Ricoh WG-50 for taking pictures in the engine compartment. My dentist has used one to take pictures of some of the work they were doing on one of my teeth. I have an older version of it and it is pretty neat in that it has a circle of LEDs around the lense to provide light when you are taking a macro shot which also allows you to shoot without a tripod. It is a lot smaller than a DSLR so you should be able to get into tight locations better. It probably does not take the best pictures in the world but they should be good enough. It seems to run a bit less than $250 . You might be able to find a used one since different versions have been around for a while and they used to be sold under the Pentax brand name

I had no idea this even existed. I might just get one for myself!
