Nice job. I found some rubber grommets at the hardware store that I used for mine, installed in the sheetmetal hole.

Thanks for the kind works, I sometimes have also drilled holes in line with where the seats sit when not folded and used office desk plugs to plug the holes,
Its something that keeps the adjuster from needing to be bent, some people have said that the resolution was not well defined enough for them. Hence the solution.
I like how you did that though. I might replace the Electrical tape with heat shrink -
Great idea Colin...I've got some heat shrink of the right size so i think I'll add that this afternoon before final installation.
I also think I'll open up the hole in the sheet metal just a bit to allow for flexing of the shocks. -

My rear adjusters with grommets. -
Nice photo Scott...since I didn't remove my side panels to do my install I did not have the ability to show where the hole comes through the sheetmetal in relation to the rest of the rear cargo area...your overall photo shows that nicely...my hole is in exactly the same spot and between the two images folks should be able to see that the adjustment extensions are easily accessible behind the side panel access hatches.

Since I wanted to put the extensions on, decided I had to do my long delayed rear seat delete. Thus the reason the panels are off. They were so easy to do too.
