You may struggle with this. Consider how much carpet has to be cut away for another inspection hole. The other two for the brakes are neatly hidden behind a large flap of carpet but this one would have to remove carpet from the centre of the car.

Once the exhust is removed, there is very good access from under the car. As the caliper mechanism has a self adjusting ratchet, there ought to be little further user input once it has been initially set up to work.

kind regards
Marek
