I clecoed the right turtle deck skin on in order to temporarily fit the fuel tank and its filler assembly. I found the top end of the turtle deck skin is way off from aligning with the holes in the side brackets that are attached to the baggage bulkhead and the sides of the reinforcement piece (box-like piece) that connects the roll bar and the baggage bulkhead skin...the rest of the turtle deck skin holes line up perfectly with the side skin and the upper side skin. I think the misalignment is around 3/8th of an inch...the side brackets can only be installed one way so I cannot see how this misalignment could have happened.
The only solution I see is to drill the needed holes to rivet things as intended. Did you have any problems in this area? I may have to bother Van's folks if I can't resolve my problem.
