Drilled a hole in each corner, stuffed a welding blanket over top the tank, yes, total PIA. Used a saber saw after cutting off a little of the blade. If I remember correctly there was a couple inches or more between the tank and the floor. Again if I remember correctly the hole was roughly 10" square.
