Somebody help me out with some pics here. My 02 LSV has something that looks very similar to Mobi1s boat. My panels screw into the cross brace that is around the engine and across to what holds in the ski pilon. So i have an aluminum frame around the engine. What did they do in the newer models? what are the panels hooked to?

Same concept. The problem is that it's a big enough opening inside the frame that the panels can bow towards the engine, and the hinges that attach the panel to the floor can pull out. So you can add hinge in the middle, brace the panel (lsvboombox), or add a cross brace to the frame (Mobi1).

Oh, ok. Now I see where he added the "three" pieces on each side. It makes sence now!!
