Hello List:
Trying for a better fit on some of my body panels on my '2. I did have the body off and fitted a new mounting kit. Had the usual fiddling problems with door fit & some seams but now stumped on the rear trunk area. When fitting the new body mount kit, I made sure that the rear bumper bolts would go through the frame and used this as a reference point. However, my trunk opening seems to have 'shrunk', with the trunk lid sitting very high right in the center by the lock. Not even close to being able to close the lid, even without the weather stripping. Wondering if I cranked down on the rear most body mounts to see if this might open the trunk opening and allow the lid to fit a bit better. Any hints on aligning this opening, especially after the rear bumper long bolts are installed?
Thanks for any help with this one.
Angelo Graham
