Well, for one I suggest when you f'glass your hatch area, you remove the hatch itself, this will allow you to work without much stress, especially if you are vertically cursed like myself.

Not sure if you want to keep your spair tire back there, if so, I would install the tire and brainstorm a design that works around it, it will be a tight fit but is possible with good patience and planning.

LOL. There is nothing wrong with being too big or too small. It's all in how you roll. (Hey that rhymed)

Snow is only 4'11"-ish and loves to roll all the biggies. Her Tahoe would probably be the smallest I have ever seen her drive. I'm more used to seeing her in the H2 >.<

One of our friend's is 6'6" and he admits he won't roll in anything but his Del Sol. Now that is funny to see. It reminds me of that commercial years ago; the one with the two-door speck (which we found out is real)
