Let this be incentive to remove the rear trim panels when installing the rear shocks in a Coupe.

In the case of double adjustable Konis, you still need access to the top of the shock stem to make setting changes. By marking the underside of the trim panel(s) using a China marker through the RSM, you can accurately place a 1/2" hole directly over the shock stem. With a Blair holesaw, you can cut just the plastic without touching the carpet. Using an X-acto knife, just slit the carpet into quarters to allow Ron Stygar's shock tool to fit through.

When you're done at the track and detailing the interior for concours events, just shape the carpet over the hole (if required) using a dental probe and nobody will ever know there's a hole there.
