Default Trap Door Mod for Fuel Pump?

I'm sick and tired of dropping my fuel tank if i want to replace or fix something. I've done it 4 times, and 1 time was too many IMO. Is there a writeup on how to cut the hole right above the fuel pump? Like where exactly it is in the car to cut the hole, measurements to find the exact placement of the hole, dimensions of the hole, etc. I don't want to butcher my car trying to figure it out...

I would also suggest going to a bone yard and cutting the rear secton out of a donor car.. make it about 10" larger than the hole you cut.. use it to patch the hole.. its a perfect fit.. saves lots of time and is easily removed in the future...

Thanks! I'll definitely be using your idea of a donor car, that will definitely save a lot of time! I also found this video on how to do it as well
