    Stupid Gap In Trunk Lid!

    Looks like I got an annoying task ahead of me. The passenger side if the hatch hangs over the body line, and the hatch is pushed out farther than the lights.

    Stupid Gap In Trunk Lid!

    Yes I tried removing them completely and it helped maybe a few MM. I will take your advice and post up a picture first thing in the morning. I'm sure it's a common problem with the hatch not lining up but I will snap a few pics when its light out.
