Anyone bother to adjust their boot lid and want to provide some color on how to do it? When closed my lid favors one side so figured I would try to center it a bit more.

Can you take the boot tray out and still get to the bolts on the hinge? That way you could loosen hinges, fasten the Dzuz latches and then tighten the hinge where it needs to be.

That is just a guess since I have not had to do it.

I suspect that in the factory, one of the craftsmen just leans on it a bit to perfect the allignment.

Slacken the leather hinge on the lid a little & move the lid in the desired direction, nip bolts up & try fit. I got mine right first try but may be a bit of trial & error.

I find that this system of closure and adjustment is very average.
Plus, I've always had crackling noises in this area...
