Fitment Issues HELP!

Well, had some quick questions...

My separation board that goes between the Trunk and Bins doesnt fit correctly.. it has a gap on one side.. which i find odd.... another problem is my hatch doesn't fit correctly.. like there is gap on one side and its tighter on the other... Car had been repainted, so maybe the hatch wasn't aligned correctly? But i can't explain the interior board.. everything else fits perfect...

Not sure about re-aligning that stuff without having seen it, but I'll be the first to say that it sounds like your car has been in an accident.

As for the interior board (divider): That MAY sound funny but when I made it pass between bins and trunk the last time, It didn't click right away in its place, means I also had a gap on the right side. What I then did is to pull the petite levers on top left and right of the panel in order to pass it correctly by hand. It just isn't a "snapping" mechanism...try again, I don't think it has anything to do with an accident.

cheers

yah, it seems that the previous owner misaligned some interior.. so one side is a little higher.. there is some weatherstripping under a panel pushing it up allowing it not to fit exact. as for the hatch i'm taking it to a body shop to have the realign it..
