OK! after many hours of hacking with a hack saw and drilling (breaking
many expensive bits) and prying with large screwdrivers and hand sledges I
am about 75% done removing my drivers side floorpan and I am extatic! I
have a very good understanding of how these pans are put together now. By
the way before I start tearing the passenger floorpan out I will either buy
a MAPP gas torch (anyone know anything about these?) or an oxy-acytelene
torch. This replacement will be almost perfect. I am now waiting to be
able to afford the new pans from Spitbits, the ones from VB are aweful and
I don't recommend them. This job is not as hard as it is made out to be,
but it is extremely intimidating!! Of course I am not done with it either.
Just thought I would share!!
