#1 3.8 FHC Rear Bulkhead Floor Board

Post by Series1 Stu » Fri Mar 12, 2021 2:33 pm

Hi

My trim kit from BAS came with 3 plywood panels. There are 2 for the boot floor (now installed) and a third one which seems to be for the top of the rear bulkhead. However, my car doesn't seem to have been fitted with a board on the bulkhead because the press studs for the mat are still in place from pre-rebuild and are fitted directly to the bulkhead metalwork. I didn't get any woodwork with the car when I bought it in boxes.

The board from BAS has 3.8 & 4.2 chalked on it. It doesn't appear in the spare parts catalogue so I'm happy to leave it out but wondered whether there was a view as to whether it should be there or not?

The floor contour in this area would be uneven whether it is fitted or not.

Regards
Stuart

A 2+2 would have a third board but then it shouldn't say 3.8 on it.
