Reaching door wall after panel removal?
I have a project I'm thinking about, and wanted some input...figured experienced people here might know the answer.
Corvette doors don't have enough metal in the middle to have anything magnetic stick to it, and that's what I'm trying to solve.
What I want to do is mount / glue some super magnets against the interior wall of the door panel. I'm wondering after removing the interior panel, can I reach the door wall easily without too much hassle?
These will be ring type magnets and I want them to sit right on the inside of the door wall so that I can hang a magnetic sign on the exterior of the doors.
Might sound silly, but that's what I'm wanting to do.

Pop the skin loose with the window down, then put the window up before unplugging skin connector. Peel off the black membrane and you should be able to do what you want. If you can't reach far enough then you can easily pull the big speaker out.
The inside of the door is unfinished and kinda rough, so I'd guess fast setting epoxy would probably hold the best, but make sure it's good and clean before trying.
