Hi guys,

I am planning on fitting a pedestal table (animal skim board 8) ) behind the front seats so need to make hole in the floor to place bottom hole plate.
My questions are..........

1 has anyone else fitted one of these ?
2 what would be the best/easiest way to cut the hole ?
3 Is there anything that runs flush to the floor pan that i may cut into !!!!!?

Cheers chaps and chapesses :wink:

It definitely requires a careful look underneath, as there is plenty you could hit with a drill if you put it in the wrong place. Have you got a flat plywood floor, or are you planning to put it onto the carpet. If the latter, I would suggest a bit of ply put under the carpet so that it beds down on a decent surface. From memory, I think the base is recessed into the floor by about 50mm.
