Rear parcel shelf cut out
« on: 21 October 2008, 17:37:39 »
Just got a parcel shelf with rear blind & cut out for bose speakers. Whats the best way to cut out the metal shelf for the speakers. Whas hoping it would be perforated so i could just knock it out. Thanks

My '99 CDX ain't got the holes - solid shelf.  I was wondering about how to cut the holes too.  Think it's going to be messy :(
