need a blowhole help centurion owners!

[leeglf]

i want to put a blowhole in the top of my centurion 530 and was wondering if anyone knows how to remove the top panel i thought all i had to do was remove the rivets from the back and slide it out but it does not want to budge!

Ok, I just pulled mine out and took a look, there's 4 rivets on the back, but you knew that much. Next, there's 4 on the front, under the top plastic part.
See pic.

Plus a additional 4 on either side of the case. You're better off masking everything off and doing the cutting with the panel in place.

thanks alot bio i am not sure about cutting the panel without removing it even if i do mask everything off i think it would be easier removing it!
oh well i will keep you informed on how its going and thanks again for the help! 8)
