OK. But how do you remove all the sand/beads after you blast? There's no 
where for it to
go.

Steve, 
If you mean in the car, use a canvas bag held in place by a helper 
(wearing gogles) or duct tape it in place, or just vacuum it up later. 
It's a messy job, you'll probably have to vacuum later anyway.  But it 
beats cutting and welding.

Keep in mind, you MUST remove the plastic air control box before you 
blast or you might as well install a drain by the pedals!
