I asked about the engine shelf, because when they installed AC (which is what your hole appears to be from) the compressor was mounted on the passenger side and didn't really fit well, so they cut the engine shelf to make room.
Ah-ha...I'll take a closer look, but I didn't notice anything out of place. Any other clues as to added A/C?
You will have several holes to weld closed in the passenger wheel well, probably. This is assuming that they routed the A/C hoses along the passenger side long, into the wheel well, and then into the front trunk. Mine had 3 one inch holes, and lots of sheet metal screw holes to fill.
Unless they mounted a non-standard pump, you will find that the engine shelf was cut. If you are lucky, they just cut it and bent the metal in the way down, if you are unlucky, they cut it all out and you will need to source new metal to weld in. If you are really lucky they did not cut the shelf at all.
