Do you guys see where the bose sound box is? Right at the center of that picture? Well I am wondering what is hidden inside the plastic domes to the left and right of it? At first I was thinking maybe the suspension... but after looking under the leaf and seeing where the suspension raises into... that is only the small lower portion of that dome. The big part that comes out to the sides is well away from where the suspension enters at the wheel well.
So, I am wondering... what is under those domes? It looks like it is a big plastic piece that you can unclip off, but I am wondering where this thing is in the user service manual since I don't want to break the clips.
That is unless someone has a picture with the part already taken off. I tried searching online and I could not find anything...
Why do I want to take it off? I badly need extra cargo room . I kind of slid my hand under the dome and I felt a cable in there. Yet I am not sure just what is under those domes exactly. If anyone has a picture of this already taken off you'd save me some time before I try to remove it myself... if I can find where it is in the service manual...

WOW I just saw this online

I guess we now have an answer So it looks like those things are mostly for show? I mean, there is still the wheel wells but from that picture right there the leaf looks to be pretty smooth.
For comparison
You see the little squares on the black side body of the leaf? THey are these
Going up further on the body you see that it spreads out past there like a drop. Like something is there. From the picture I linked first there doesn't seem to be anything there. So those things are just there for looks! Yup, if you talk about a cargo space upgrade that picture is the possibility .
