Alan:
I think you are referring to the later 6 cylinder models, Jose is asking about
the BN2 model that has a triangular wood piece covered in vynil the same
colour as the interior. It is located inside the right hand side of the car
pretty well in line with the opening where the spare tire bag joins the spare
tire opening in the chassis. Jose , look through your right rear wheel well,
there should be two holes used to locate the screws that hold the wood pieces
in place.
