This is the reason why i didn't get a tail tidy and went for the undertray. Why the hell do they make them with the gaps? Surely its just as easy to make them properly than not :smt102.. If your only worried about water getting in there you could always use clear silicon to fill the gap!! Apart from that, i suppose you could coverer from the inside with some black plastic or something glued/taped in place!!

Wonder what others have done, is there actually one they make that fits properly??

I can't see any gap in the picture, but you could use a roll of draught excluder if the gap is not too big.

cant see the gap....

because the shovel has been removed, the undertay has nothing to fit into. leaving a gap revealing the screws that attatch the tailtidy to the framework underneath.

was thinking of gaffa taping it up till i can think of something to do to it
