Interested idea,

Not a big fan of drilling the holes but I understand it will make it easier to access in the future.

I just replaced my iso coupler a few months ago and I found the easiest way was to shove the wooden handle of my automotive mallet between the lid and rear hood space and then rotate is 90 degrees. This helps give enough clearence that you can use a 10min swivel socket attachment to thread the needed rear lid bolts.

A little more detail here.
