Default Front floor panels

I have removed all the floor panels on my quick build fusalage except for the front ones. Since the landing gear bracket is installed, it looks like there is no way to remove the panels without unbolting the gear bracket. Should I leave the floor panel in place and rivet them down.

Few options in this post. I think Bill Peyton removed without removing the gear.

I did remove them without removing the gear leg support brackets. I just cut the floor panel and around the attachment


Then I made a new panel that was riveted permanently back in..
