The reason I felt the SkidPlate needed to be removed, was to get to the Front O2 Sensors, and unplug them properly, as well as the bonus room to get to header flange bolts.

Very nice write up!

Yea, I needed to remove it to get the the top of the header flange bolts. I didn't know I could get it without taking the front felt pieces down. All that little stuff takes a lot of time so it's good if you can skip some steps.
