Hatch/rear Deck carpet design

[HELLFIRE!]

I'm just curious about the carpeting in the hatch area. In particular I'm intrigued as to how it's meant to interact with the spare tyre well and the front compartments in the 2 seater.

 

I ask this because I'm unsure as to what the original setup looked like, was it just one piece of carpet or was it in sections?

 

I would like to restore my 2 seater to original specs but am willing to make alterations when the original design is silly. eg poor headlights

 

From other discussions on carpet that I have read it would seem that getting a trimmer to redo the carpets is an excellent idea. So I figured that if I'm going to get a trimmer to do the work then why not get a slightly customized job done on the hatch carpet.

 

I envisage a design that allows the carpet that covers the spare tyre to be lifted/hinged to one side without disturbing the rest of the carpeting. The same would apply to the storage compartments. To do this I would need a solid (perhaps 3 ply) base with hinged panels inserted under the carpet.

 

Dose this make sense?
