Default How to adjust rear coilovers?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to adjust the rear coilver dampner on a JIC FLT-A2 coilover?

I removed the panels on the beam in the trunk and from what I see, the hole which holds the fastner for the plastic is too far to the left for me to stick the chuck key in and connect it with the dampner on top of the shock.

What could I do in this case to get to that dampner?

You can do what I did... Drill another hole to the left or the right of that small home... Since the panel is going to cover the hole it wont matter...

Hope that helps...

Thanks,

Thats what I was thinking as well but just wanted to get a 2nd opinon.

Is there anything I should watch out for when drilling the hole?

Anything underneath the inital metal I should be worried about?

There is nothing there... Oh yeah... Drill the hole about 1.5 inch from the hole you are peeking from (towards the outside of the car)... This should leave you right on top of the ****...
