stripping front carpet
#1
So the strip out prior to cage fitting is at a mid point, only thing I need advice on is how to remove the fuel cap lever and if it's okay to unbolt the plate which im pretty surenis the door hinge as the carpet sits under them, if so what are the best methods?
Cheers

Do you really want to strip out the front carpet? ive got a cage and kept my front carpet. Keeps things quiet and no slippy feet! I think the fuel cap lever just pulls off?

The carpet is going back in, the fab guys need it out to weld the plates. i will return the front carpet and leave out the middle and rear.
What cage have you got?

I have a safety devices. Its the only off the shelf one that allows you to keep the door cards and requires no modification to the dash apart from the lower glove box being inaccessible.

Hadn't even thought about the door cards, I just got the omp one that has no dash mods needed but maybe im just about to loose my doorcards. Huh

The lever i assume? Cheers and the hinge plate? At a guess keep the door shut, undo the bolt, remove carpet and retighten.
