Oh the FUN!

I think the tank was about the only thing I didnt have to do. That and the inside baggage railing.

The floor pan believe it or not is a bit of a pain. There is a hidden lip that grabs under the plywood. That keeps it in place.
Eventually I ended up cutting it out with a cutting wheel then I redid that section of flooring. You can probably get away with not replacing any flooring. Usually underneath that is not great.

Dont forget the doors to the blowers open up and your side engine doors.
Air chisel, cutting wheel, grinder, and a manual cold steel tile chisel are your best friends.

I have an MC8 and took everything out. Including all the lav hoses etc and fixed the hole from the tank you just took out.

Let me know if you need more help.
