Any chance of a sanity check please? The closing plates on my rear arches had disappeared so I just need confirmation of what's right please!

Wrong?

Also, how does the top of the closing plate fit with the joint between the rear of the tub and the front edge of the battery tray? between them? behind the battery tray?

Thanks in advance
 
ON A LATE :roll: the closing panel is part of the arch ,not a seperate panel.think it mght be the same on a early.
 
Sorry about the underseal. There's def a join there from manufacture - I remember noticing when I was poking about. I'd tuck the closing panel between the tub and the battery tray. Makes sense for water run-off.

Well I said I wouldnt post photos again but heres how I did mine 8)

I had to extend it a little but did I so it kept a factory lookinf join (even though I'm technically creating a possible water trap :( )

Thanks all, just needed confirmation that the folds are on the reverse under the battery tray, and looks like I'll be tucking it betweem the end of the tub and the tray. :)
