Tomorrow turned into today, and today turned into last week. Anyway, I got a 68mm hole saw from Home Depot, drilled a pilot hole dead center and proceeded to cut a hole in our new(to this car) deck lid. The O.D. of the piece I'm welding in almost 70mm, so I had a little room to fudge it if the hole wasn't dead center. And what do you know it was off a tiny bit. After some measuring and hand filing I had it dead center and ready to weld in place. In these pics, you mat notice that I also welded up the rear facing part of the lid where the license plate light used to be. I decided that it looked way better without that chrome trim/light piece at all, and removed it. I'm not going to be running the license plate there anyway. Hopefully I'll be back soon with part 3, welding and grinding the part in place.
