That's a great idea ![Thumb](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/thumb.gif)
Looks like an electrical box cover?? It sure beats the 50 screws I used to hold down my access plate.
Is the cover frame itself sealed in any way to the sheet metal of the car? If not, only improvement I would make is to permanently seal the cover frame to the car & install some sort of gasketing around the hinged lid so that it is sealed better when closed.
Innovative idea though - makes for even easier access!

Wow, that looks like an awesome solution to keeping that hole in the floor closed and sealed. As long as that door does not rattle and you can seal it that should work. I did not cut a hole into my floor yet because I am not sure how I would close it back out. Don't want any fumes finding their way back into the car.
