Default Manual cutout removal/replace?

How hard would it be for a exhaust shop to take out a manual cutout and put an elec. one back in? When I bought my car, it came with the manual on it. The problem is, my car is lowered and I am a "fat guy". I can't reach under there to get the cap on and off. If I buy and elec. cutout, will it be fairly easy to cut it out and put the new one in?

You could just buy the electric cutout plate and use your current cutout. It would be cheaper and you could wire it yourself.

The electric cutout just bolts on in place of the removable manual plate.

Is QTP the only one who has these? Just wondering if there are other companies that sell them.

Also DMH, and I believe FLP carries a very cool (and expensive) worm-gear type.
