[QUOTE="jigngrub, post: 254664, member: 6657"] Making your hatch lid 1/4" smaller than your opening will make a [b]very[/b] tight fit, I'd go with 3/8" all the way around. You can alway try a dry fit before gluing the carpet to your lid, just lay a piece of carpet over the hole and then see if your lid will press down into the opening. [/QUOTE]
