I have added a much needed access panel to make servicing the engine much easier but it would be nice to take it one step further. With the back pad off it is very quick to access but you have to remove the whole back pad to get to it.

It would be awesome if the back pad had a removable section that would pop out to allow access to the firewall panel like the picture below.

This might be something Mark at 914Rubber could come up with if there was enough interest.

I use PEM studs pulled into the sheet metal for the access panel. Works great and has minimal intrusion on the backside. A few small button hex bolts gets it done on the inside.

The velcro rear panel is a great idea.
