Message	to you about that. Aside from putting your life in danger, the damage done to your car is really minor. Any body shop can hammer down the sheetmetal and stitch up the panel. Save some labor time by pulling back the carpet around the hole so they can weld w/o burn up your interior. If that happened then you'd really have a nightmare on your hands. gordo _________________________________________________
