Unfortunately, there is "NO" bottom access! My door is quite solid
save for a couple of small (no way the motor assembly is coming out of
them) holes. The carpet kick panel "looks" like it would hide access,
but solid steel underneath.
So...the entire lift assembly has to be taken out to replace the
motor? Im going to need a big friggin hole!
