Access to tunnel with center console

I'm considering a fiberglass center console in my RV-10. I'm concerned that putting a console in will make getting access to the tunnel very difficult, especially if there any avionics or swithes in it.

For those of you who have installed a fiberglass console, how do you get access to the tunnel?

Pictures would be awesome if you have them.
 
I cut an access hole on the co-pilot side to give me easy access to the fuel pump and filter. I have a plate on the top tunnel toward the back I can also take off but it is still not possible to reach the filter without the access hole.
As for access to the back on the panel, I can take out the Chelton's and Grand Rapids and gain access to almost anything I need to get at.
