This area is very complicated and I think you'll be surprised and dismayed if you start to cut in there thinking it will be simple. There are about 8-12 different layers of metal in some areas and all of them are also structural, so you need to be prepared to put them all back together again once you're done. Is it possible that the holes you're hoping to seal over were the original holes where the brite trim mounted? If so, you might be better off just welding them closed from the outside and sanding them smooth. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
