Cefiro boot latch / fitment

[blf0005]

Hi all, When I purchased my cefiro the trunk would not latch. I purchased a new latch assembly from eBay, installed the latch (part of it at least) onto he boot lid  and was able to adjust the attchment point on the chassis itself and get it to at least latch but I cannot get it to seat tightly against the body. There’s is mayor an eighth to a quarter of an inche that it needs to be further down. 

Adjusting the two latch pieces that lock together is not the solution, as if the chassis mounted piece is any further down the boot won’t latch at all. 

The thing that baffles me is that the latch I ordered came with a thin stamped metal “bar” about 4 inches long that I have no idea in the world where it possibly could go? Does anyone know the proper place to install this or how to get the trunk to seat all the way flush with the reward quarters? 

 

Any help is is greatly appreciated!! Attached is a picture of the mystery piece that I cannot figure out how or where to install
