Abstract
A lid for closing an automobile body recess, particularly a filler inlet compartment lid for a motor vehicle, is pivotally connected by means of a hinge, a hinge arm being fastened at the body recess. In order to, on the one hand, achieve a surface transition from the lid to the adjacent outer wall of the body that is flush with the shell of the body and, on the other hand, ensure a surrounding, constant gap between the lid and the body opening, the hinge arm that faces the body recess is held in position at the body recess, by an adjusting device.
