PRHT Rear deck shim?

  1. My model of MX-5 is: NC1 Niseko PRHT
  2. I’m based near: Lancashire
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: PRHT Roof issues.
  4. I have had the rear deck removed and painted along the leading edge to get rid of the scabby appearance and when I valeted and polished the car, found this item on the rear carpet behind the roof. Has anyone any idea what it is, could it be a shim that’

    s dropped out when the deck was refitted by the body shop?
    many thanks in advance.

UK Penfold, Many thanks for your reply . Will the lack of this shim be likely to cause any operating or leak problems in the future and should |I return it to the body shop for correct re fitment.

Best regards

Scott

Hi Scott , your welcome , not sure but I assume it was there before , so if it was me I would refit it looks simple enough , so yes I would have a chat with them and show them the shim and diagram and see what they say …
