A couple of days ago I installed some Rigid ditch lights on my 2021 bronco and upon completion I noticed that there was a significant gap on the cowl right near the antenna.
  1. Is it due to the fact that I didn’t take the antenna off during the install?
  2. Did I break something? 😳
  3. Anybody else come across this as well?
It doesn’t look normal that’s why I’m kind of worried. Any help, advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated

P.S. I used plastic trim remover tools to pop open the cowl. I wasn’t rough.

You didn’t break anything but that trim piece of the down is not properly clipped into the plastic retainers on the adjacent piece. I suggest you remove that piece and reinstall it correctly.

thank you, I’m going to give that a shot, it’s just that it’s hell to take that aftermarket antenna off.I remember it came with locktight on it
