Might be useful for those of you considering a similar upgrade.

not sure how the op did it but i would duct tape, then a thin mdf board cut to the holes shape, duct tape over again, then sd over that

yeah i was thinking of doing that as well, just wanted if there was another solution to taping the backing of a sheet of mdf/cardboard (i.e using a plastic sheet instead)

I believe the installer simply Dynomat'd over the access panels with multiple layers which would be sufficient given that the Dynamat also has the metal layer over the roadbase. As mentioned MDF is also a pretty good alternative.

Fkkk thats nice

Very. but the pic above was just a comparison. The actual location is in the boot beside the spare wheel. It was a shame to hide it away but its a more practical solution.
