Does anyone have a spare wooden boot floor? I have the left hand side that goes over the petrol tank but not the right!

You just need a template of the two panels really

It's better to make a new one out of a decent ply.
Make a carboard template first, maybe a nice bit of carpet too

The original simply used a paired set of small sections of sheet metal either side to create a slot for the larger panel to locate itself, it's pretty simple and crude. If you want pictures, let me know.

About the carpet, this is an excellent idea, mine has had one made up and looks brilliant, and much nicer than the rubber mat originally supplied.

Cheers, Eddie

I have the rubber mat and I quite like it actually. Saves stuff from moving around too much :wink:

Snodge, will see what I can do over the weekend re the template.

I hadn't forgotten :roll:

Scale to the right dimensions, I guess. Dimensions in centimeter.
The blue is a cut-out so you can get the right panel out easier.
Will post picture too as soon as I have my camera back.

Cheerio
