JonJon, I'm glad to see someone else tried it without asking my 1000 questions. What you mean it doesnt sit right?? You mean under the rear window? I had the same thing. I put the lower two bolts back in so it will, and when I want it looking good, I remove them. I an going to do it another way here soon so I dont have to use the bolts.
