When i did my pan i took the body off the car with the windows,doors and fenders on and put it up on some sturdy work horses.After cleaning the crap out of my pan i ended up taking it to a local body shop.The guy knew VWs so i just bought pan full pan halfs and had him do it .He drilled out all of the factory spot welds and air chiseld the floors off.Then i towed it home and replaced all of my brake lines they where rusty .When i put it back together i used 3M weather striping adheasive to glue the pan gasket to the pan to keep it from moveing when i put the body on it.
