Default Spacers for relocated slam panel

Having just completed this exercise following the excellent how to below


http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=41195

I give my method of ensuring that the repositioned panel automatically goes back in the new position without having to do careful measurements again.

Could you repeat the words in red following 'Spacers'? The image isn't very clear (on my screen anyway).
Many thanks.

.Spacers fix here will mean that the Panel automatically refits to the new position in the future.

It should have said "spacers fixed here will ensure that the panel will
automatically refit to the new position in the future".

It will remove the need to jack up the slam panel to the new position every time the crash beam is unbolted. On my car I realised that there was a perfect space there to insert a wedge on each end of the slam panel. This could be a glued block, a screwed block, a welded block, etc etc.
