I think you’re right glennpm.

Looking at the reportage, they put a support between the frame and the bottom of the quarterpannel. This one measure 3 1/2 in.
On my car, I have 4 1/2.

In the inside of the trunk, this shape shoudn’t be seeable.
On mine, we can see the top of it.

The whole body must go down on the floor.

Thank you everyone for your help. We’ve covered all the bases.
