lol... can't get the factory wheel chalk back in place.pics

[RIPN RAY]

the factory wheel chalk has been out of the car for a while. when i first got the car i was leaving it in my sloped drive way because my brake didn't work. now the e-brake works and it's time to put it back in. but i can't seem to put it in correctly. in the postion that it's in in th pics i can't get the cover to set properly over it.

the thing is bent a little but shouldn't be enough to effect anything...or is it bent the wrong way??

Whoa!! so that's what that thing is for?! it's a wheel chock!! I never knew I had one of those -- I learn things about this car daily...

this position seems to work better, but, it's nothing like the manual pictures...

Ha! Me neither! That's another 1/3 lb I can lose when going to the track now.

and click the Manage Attachments button. It allows you to browse for the picture in your computer. There is a size limit of 39.1K so if your file is larger, you should size it down first.

I'll take and post this afternoon a picture of the trunk content arrangement so you can compare.

I posted both pictures, yours, and mine, so you can easily compare. I think yours is more than “bent a little“, or quite different from mine.

Javier

can't see anything :(
