Here i'm assessing the body damage on the passenger floor pan. I could have bought a patch panel for such a small area but for the low price and for the sake of a few hours of extra work I decided that i'd replace the entire floor pan.
I first tried cutting the seat platform and pan using a metal "zip" wheel. The sparks and dust was horrific. Not to mention the time it took for it cut through. I decided to use my cordless sawzall. Heck, it was worth the try. Wow! Did this ever make of quick work. After I cut out the seat platform I laid the floor pan on top and quickly marked out my cut lines. From there I deducted around 1/2" just because I didn't want to overcut and find out the my floor pan wasn't big enough for my opening. After cutting out the old floor pan I could easily trim the 1/2" to suit.
