Good ideas for a floor jack, I just might try it.

As for the gaps, I think I will try my 9/16" weather stripping and see how that works. I also found a roll of clear tape (might be gaffer might not be) which I may also use. Add a tube of caulk to fill seal up the foam to wood seam by the back window hinges and to go over the bolts at the top mounts and I should have a water resistant boat tail. Nothing man made is water proof, water allays wins in the long run but this "should" make it usable.

Is anyone interested in a video clip of it while driving? I still have my mount from my matrix owners how I drive clip. It is a bit high for a clear view out the rear window but will get most of the view.
