Merv, Jim and the others who replied that I should not "seal off" the 
transaxle access plate:

I decided to remove the transaxle access panel prior to the bedliner job.

Wow! What a job. I learned there are 2 bolts on the underside that hold the 
heater duct assembly. I was able to lift up the access panel, by removing 
the shroud on the air intake on the engine shroud, pry it up, and then 
loosen the bolts.

Is there an easier way? I could not figure a way to reach the bolts from the 
bottom.

Thanks,

Dave Sanger
