It almost needs that upright to extend to the top of the window and bolt on up there, just to give it some more support. It looks like it might fatigue easily as it is. Top job though!!

hanging from the roof is a led brake light from some spoiler or other
lines up with the top of the back window when the doors shut


the tyre is a 215 75 15


wieght of the tyre is taken by the wheel arch so i hope it wont fall to bits
also has an upright bolted to wheel arch
