good luck

Another tip: the new tanks don't come with the hole predrilled open for the dipstick, since later cars with the same tank lacked the dipstick. You can do a neater/cleaner job of drilling this on your workbench rather than doing it after installation.
Oh, and plan on replacing your oil filler tube while you have it loose, because if your tank is shot the oil filler tube won't be far behind, is a PIA to replace by itself, and is cheap.
Also, pull the wiring grommet into the trunk to give you another access point.
