    Yeah, the bottom rear is too much inside. What causes that?

    Good luck for tomorrow man.

    If only I knew... I had it PERFECT when I marked the holes. I think it's the rear striker/latch mount that most directly affects the rear corner.

    Inspection attempt 2 failed but I'm SOOOOOOOOO close! Just need to :
    -Adjust parking brake : MD requires positive engagement at around 8-10 clicks. Currently set for end of travel
    -Revisit the turn signal canceller : I know it works at the end of steering travel in both directions, but I think inspector wants it to trigger earlier.

    I should be done this process on Friday!
