Rear parcel shelf difficult to remove - Sprint FHC
Posted: Sun May 13, 2007 9:16 pm
I thought an easy job this morning was to remove the rear parcel shelf prior to dismantling the rear suspension.
However there the shelf is reluctant to come out - there is not enough clearance between the rear screen rubber and the fibreglass panel behind the quarter trim - see attached pic. Presumably the shelf was originally fitted before the rear screen was fitted.
I don't want to remove the rear screen or damage the shelf trim so am proposing to nibble away enough fibreglass at the rear of the panel behind the quarter trim to enable me to ease the front of the parcel shelf through.
Does this sound OK or anyone have any better ideas?
