Seriously though I've thought of doing this, just never had the balls to do it yet.

I was hoping someone who tracks more often would have attempted this. I've debated on it, but just never had the time to measure out exactly where the holes would need to be drilled, and then some way to plug/cover them when I'm not tracking. Of course, best case scenario is when you're tracking, gut the trunk anyways for weight savings...

I am quite a ways off from tracking it. Down the road it will just get gutted, but the wife won't understand doing so now. And I would agree with her. On the other hand, having access to play with the coilover knob to learn a little while just street driving wouldn't hurt anything. The more I learn about how they behave before I do any HPDE or something else I figure can't hurt me. And being able to adjust them quickly would benefit me greatly. Mainly because I am lazy. I noticed a post just last night in WTB section looking for new rear panels because they "messed them up" trying to cut holes in them for access to the knobs. I don't want to go down that road.

Hmmm... Must have tried to cut them outside the car, and the tool 'slipped'...
