When The new rear window to trunk panel in place (Not Welded yet) I noticed that the piece that is on the interior by the package tray, Doesn't touch the package tray. It's off of it by about 3/4 of an inch. Is that normal? Just wanted to make sure before it gets welded and i can't adjust it.

I kind of figured there would be about 1/4 inch gap, but would like to get the opinions of others

I don't know the correct gap (I'd guess around 1/4" too) but I suggest you weld your window trim studs to it before you weld the panel in.

Yes, I'll be installing and welding in the trim studs, Just trying to make sure everything fits properly before I weld the panel in place.

anyone else?

I'll take a look at mine when I get home tonight, I am pretty sure that it is a hefty gap, the rear deck material and trim work etc go around that area..

perfect ! the package tray and jute padding go under it ! thats what mine measures out to.

My gap at that area measures ~1/4 inch in different locations!
