vp bootlid adjustment

[ringfeder3]

ok. today's challenge...

the corner of my vp bootlid (closest to bottom right of rear screen) sits about 10mm lower than rest of the lid. how do i adjust it to make it sit level?

It closes alright. no signs of damage anywhere.

Only adjustment I have noticed was on the corner of the boot-lid, which corresponds to above the tail lights, there is a rubber screw in/out adjuster, doesn't seem to make much difference to the windscreen corners though.

Is the boot lid rubber seal on properly? Even all the way around?

looks to be. one of the spring rods was missing but i have since replaced it. closes well now but sits a bit crooked..hence this post

fixed. local panel beater applied upward pressure to hinge and bought it into line...

I remember when I worked at GMH we used to adjust the boot lid by putting a rubber mallet under the hinge and pushing the boot lid up to raise it
