What is the correct way to install DS kick panel??

Is the DS kick panel as shown in the picture below installed correctly? Or should the kick panel be installed over the left edge of the under dash panel?

anyone have a picture they can post?? i'm dealing with a 1984 Trans Am if it matters.
i removed the kick panel and tried reinstalling it over the left edge that hangs down on the under dash panel. it's just not fitting. i don't see how the kick panel could possibly be installed over that side piece of the under dash panel.

The marked area goes behind the kick panel. Technically the KP is installed correctly, but the hush panel is not.

It does fit behind the KP, mine and this is the bose type. Camaro hush panel is slightly different, but should still mount up the same.
