I looked at it once, I think it's a full panel removal to get to fixing points, which may be rivets ?!?! It was a while ago.....

I remember Dick Sloan saying once that he wouldn't supply a new filler flap due to the work it takes. Replace the whole panel is quicker

It's a lot of hassle for a low value item for sure.
