To my horror, I discovered a dent in the fron of my
vanagon...right in the nose...that wide, flat piece of
metal just below the windshield and above the radiator.

The good news is that it sould pop right out using the
paintless dent removal service (air bag from behind).
The bad news is that there is no external access to the
space because there is a piece of steel attached just
below it to form a double wall effect.  I would have to
remove the dash to get to it.

I would like to just drill a hole (1")in the lower
portion of the body piece (like this > ) so that the
dent guy can then gain access to the rear of the dented
portion of the sheetmetal.  I can seal the hole with a
plug like VW does in other areas.

My concern:  what is inside the nose?  Are there wires
or hoses or anything else i might bugger up by drilling
into the "bottom" portion of the nose behind the grill
and above the radiator?

Thanks for any info.
