Access Panel - boot floor

I have noted on many builds the need for an access panel in the boot area to get to the differential, fuel pump etc. I cant seem to track down a part at GBS - they supply the boot panels (see earlier post) but the floor panel is solid and needs cutting out.

So, no option but to get the jigsaw out and cut out a hole in the panel and fit a new piece over it secured with x4 rivnuts and bolts.

a nice little fabricating job - sourced some metal sheet off ebay which will provide the new floor, cut that to size, filed and trimmed. 

Added some window insulating tape round the edges to provide a seal and secured into position with the freshly drilled rivnuts/bolts.

looks good (although not the best photos, poor light!)
