From what i know, there is no access panel under the rear seat to get to the fuel pump. So ****don't cut a hole***** the proper way is to lower the tank from underneath the car and then remove the pump. You are begging for trouble if you go cutting holes in the metal around a tank full of gas!!!! Do it the right way!
There are some who have had great success with modifying the floorpan... Myself included as of 4 days ago.
Is it risky that you'll drill an unplanned opening into the tank? Sure. Can you mess it up and end up buying a replacement tank? You betcha. Would you use an angle grinder throwing a stream of sparks across the top of the gas tank? Only if you mother raised a complete idiot - and it's not one of your siblings.
I had a spare tank to take lots of measurements off of and thankfully a lot of luck was with me.

No, there is no access hole for the fuel pump on a 1989 Chevrolet Celebrity. To change the fuel pump or replace the filter "sock" it is necessary to drop the fuel tank out of the car. I have been tempted to make my own access hole but never have.
