I have done 2 ways.

1) take an 18" or 24" hurrican strap (used for trusses) tape a box end wrench to it. Take a piece of tape and place over one side of the box end. this way you can place the nut into one side of the box end of the wrench and it will not fall thru. Basically a long extension box end wrench. use this to go in thru the front dash access.. This way is still hard to do.

2) which is easiest in my opinion. Remove the rod orginizer from the center rod compartment (about 6 screws.) slide on back up into the compartment. You can get all the way up into the nose or atleast I could. Make sure you bring all the tools and hardware up inder with you. Have a friend turn the screw from outside while you are up under the hood of your bullet. I was able to move around and work in a comfortable fashion. almost wanted to take me a little power nap while I was upinder

I am 5'-8" about 205lbs and a shoulder span thats a tad wider then your normal guy of that build. There is more room inder then ya think

while your upder take a glance around and you can see how your stringers and wires get put together. Its pretty neat
