The directions read:

>Fuel Pump Access Door

>Gen I & II MTX SHO

>Pictures and Guide by Beth McCormack

>Work performed by Bill Saunders
>Edited and Produced by Joshua Langevin

>This guide will show you how to install a fuel pump access door. This
modification will eliminate the need to drop the fuel tank to change the
fuel pump >and will literally save you hours of being on your back and
possibly the need of getting a new tank.

out of the way. Measure from the outside of the door trim 21" and mark a
>line. Then mark another line at 30". It should look something like this:

The directions do not mention measuring from which door...  Are you saying

regards, from the rust belt,
