Default 1999 V70 GLT B5254T Fuel Pump Access Door??

It has been determined that I need a new Fuel Pump. Was wondering, is there an access door?, or does the tank need to be lowered/taken out? Any vendors you might suggest, as to where to get the part?
Thanks, Matt

Not positive on the '99 MY but know on '98 and earlier (855s) there's an access cover behind the passenger rear seat; pull up the panels and you should find it.

AFAIK it was only the AWD models that didn't have an access panel for the fuel pump and the tank had to be dropped (or cut a hole in sheet metal ).

As far a new fuel pump brand I recommend Bosch as they are the OEM. IPD or FCP (or others) should have them. Some guys swear by the aftermkt Walpro pumps and from what I've heard they're OK (heard they're noisier than OEM) but also heard there are lots of walpro knock-offs out there..
