Michael , before you cut hole or pull the tank check the wiring to the tank to make sure you have power to the pump . The relay can be good and the pump can be fine , there could be a short in the wiring between them . nothing is more frustrating than replacing a pump only to find it wasn't bad.I have had more than one occasion were a wire had been damaged by something bouncing under the car and causing a short. As for cutting a hole in your back seat floor be forewarned that the car will smell like gas for a long time after . and be very careful . if the seal is off at all in the top of the tank and you make spark there could be fumes that can ignite . This can make a bad day even worse. I personally prefer to drop the tank , just hope its not to full. I also replace straps or at least the hardware after to make installation easier.
