Fitted the rear lower trim panel, and it fitted like it should have been in place all the time.
As you can see it covers the large gap where the exhaust curves around the tank.
One locating point required the removal of the existing speed fixing as with that in place the trim panel didn't have enough thread to attached to. Not sure if I was to remove the plastic fitting/spacer on the tank before fitting the trim panel. I wasn't sure if it should recess more or not, so left it in place as the fixing has a few mm thread spare and won't come off. Any ideas if I should have tried to remove the small spacer from the tank locator? (not even sure if it comes off tbh)
Perhaps I should look up the tank on Etos and see if it comes with the small spacer moulded in or its an attachment? *Edited* ETOS doesn't show the fixing as a detachable part from the tank so i will leave it on the vehicle and assume it is a spacer to prevent chaffing (spelling) on the plastic tank.
