Anybody have problems with the holes matching up for the interior hatch piece? I really don't want to drill new holes into such a nice piece but any suggestions will be nice.

So is drilling new holes into the piece necessary or not? Maybe someone from topshop can chime in
sorry about that.
i looked at it yesterday and 2 of the holes does not line up.
i took a picture of which ones.

this pic should orient you to which ones to start with... this one also did not line up.

and this is the second one which did not line up.
When i took a look, it wasnt off very much... but redrilling seems the best way to go because when i turn up my stereo a bit, it rattles like a son of a b**ch.

We tried to install Predator's piece last night and it looks like its possibly warped or something, and the gaps looked off quite a bit. Possibly just had a bad batch in the production or something? TopShop's always been known to be spectacular when it comes to accuracy in their pieces.

You can drill new holes into the metal of the car. Maybe differant years have differant hole locations.

A person should be able to push the part into place if it is alittle snug. The oem one is just a thin peice of plastic.A person has to set the part in, not lay it above the and look at.
it looks as though you will have to drill a new hole.
and its not just snug, it pretty much doesnt fit... so my interior guy told me that he will have to cut it or otherwise modify it so that it wont rattle like it is doing right now.
