Good Morning,

Can you guys tell me what you have used to cut the rear panel? The directions say Dremel tool or bandsaw and I don't have either one. I do not want to screw up the filler panel and have a mess. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

Dremel tool is an absolute must have for any homeowner/ wannabee mechanic.
If you aren't comfortable with a dremel($19.99 and up) ask a buddy or have dealer do it.
My first try with the cut out was off about 1/8 inch... I used the dremel

I did not want to take a chance with a Dremel tool.............I had bad visions of it catching and cutting more than I wanted to. I completly taped (painters tape) the painted side so it did not scratch the paint. Then I used a brad point bit (so it did not walk) to drill the corners, then I connected the dots with a band saw. It worked great and only took about 15 minutes. If you need help and don't have many options bring it over and I'll do it. I'm about 4 1/2 hours west of you in SE Iowa.
