Adjustable suspension question

i recently installed a set of tokico hts dampers. they are awesome. the only problem is that i can't stand having to take the strut bar and rear seat out to adjust them. i have found that i can use an allen wrench to adjust the dampers. i am thinking of drilling a hole in the strut tower bar on either side to allow access to the top of the shock and holes in the rear parcel shelf to allow access to rears and then using a grommet of some type to cover those when not in use.

anyone else have any ideas that they have tried?

thanks.

I drilled holes in my strut bar for the Konis. Originally it was going to be a 3/4" hole to use the supplied Koni adjustment knob but I ended up going with a 3/8" hole and a home made tool.

I've considered drilling the rear too but haven't had the time yet. It would be very simple, a little hole and a color matching plug. It would barely be noticable.
