Factory screw up

As I disassemble the GTX, I have been trying to photo document as many details as possible. I found this one interesting, it seems that Westpoint Pepperell, which was a major carpeting supplier to Chrysler Corp screwed up the heelpad placement. There is one heelpad on top of the other :shock:
