Hi Jim,
Sounds like you were one step ahead of us. Let us know how it goes with time.
I hope to eventually join you in using at least a little of that space. Or possibly both sides.

These pins are just part of the van that I found helpful to locate/position the cover. Currently it is secured at the top with velcro, but I may change that.
