Rear cockpit wall install - MK 3

Anyone have any pics ? Do you rivet along the 3/4 in tube by the seatbelt holes ? The panel does not seat well against it, thanks

I always rivet it there.

I Screwed mine in because I upholstered it. It's not structural so I'm not worried about strength. And, for some reason carpet on walls just looks weird to me. :)

Here is the Build School's MK III, circa 2005:

I remember the back wall didn't seat really well on that car either. My own was a little better. Just minor manufacturing differences, I think.

P.S. I think I have photos of how the rear cockpit corners go together as well if it helps? Don't forget to finish the trunk floor before riveting the cockpit back wall in place.

Thanks guts, I will rivet it, just such a gap
