Hey guys!

My brand new 04 has a strange issue. The rear deck lid is farther away from the rear glass on the driver's side (i can get my finger down in there) vs. the passenger side (maybe only the tip) and it is noticable to look at it.

Can you unbolt the rear deck lid and perhaps move the one side closer and tighten it back down?

Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks!

How does it fit otherwise? Fixing one thing may mess up another. Is the rear glass trim straight? When I got mystang, part of the trim was not even fastened to the glass. (Ford, where quality is job 1, but sometimes 2 or 3...maybe 4 or 5 on Fridays, 6 or 7 on Mondays, 8 if it's after a holiday weekend...)
