Subject: LG45 DHC boot opening
The original rear numberplate panel that goes below the boot lid had been replaced by a fairly crude assenbly on my car. When the boot lid is closed there is a gap between the inside of the lid and the boot floor (the boot floor may not be original either). A gap to the outside in the boot doesn't seem like a good idea.

A while ago I looked under the rear of an LG45 saloon and there was a curved panel that ran from side to side - the top edge of the panel seemed to be under the floor and lower edge fixed behind the numberplate panel just above the numberlate position. This would catch anything that fell from the boot through the gap I imagine.

Can anyone confirm this and let me know how it all fixes. Or tell me how else this gap was dealt with. Some photos/diagrams would be great if possible.

Thanks
David
