Hi All,
Although user friendly (nice work Andy), I've only used the archives a few 
times and have had good luck. I know we discussed this before - but couldn't 
seem to find it there. 

Question is: Does anyone know of any problems that could be caused by driving 
around without the rear trunk liner installed?

Since I've only had the car a few weeks and I'm sure it will continue for the 
rest of the summer, people ask to see the spare engine in the back and I do 
like to show it off so I left liner out. I realize dirt might get kicked into 
the area, and going over 100 (which I don't plan to do) might cause some 
uplift inside the rear. Could leaving it out increase the chances of the deck 
popping open from air lift even at 65?? I suppose anything could happen if 
the body flexes the wrong way at the wrong time - but I wonder just how much 
the liner would change any of that.

Appreciate any feedback. Thanks scruff (aka fran - lovin' 03766 with new
