If you take your time with the tubes they come together nice.

Hi Ed, good progress here. Although you should reconsider the placement of your rear grill thing. It looks less odd when glued on the inner side of the rear wall.😉

I think you are talking about the area for stowage.

That seems oddly placed aswell, but it was more about the air outlet/intake: [img1]

The instructions are kind of vague on the intake placement.
