Default fuel pump access under rear seat ?

Anyone know if there is an access panel under the rear seat of a 2004 cavalier to get at the fuel pump ? Car isnt with me but was wondering to avoid the labor cost and do it myself for girlfriend. Thanks

Nope, but dropping the tank is pretty easy on those. Esp if the tank isn't full.

I have seen lots of people cut holes in the floor of thier Tahoe, Suburbans, Avalanche, ESCALADE instead of dropping the tank. All I can say is WTH?
