Michele,
 I've left mine partially open and intend to close them with the appropriate
cherry-max rivets when I'm done in there . . . soon I hope!
 Good Luck,
Bob

Michele:

You're right...it'll be a recurring nuisance getting inside those gear boxes 
to, for instance, tighten the nuts holding the landing gear in place, or to 
install the vent tubes and fittings.

However, I don't think that the screws will work.  You'll soon be bolting 
some weldments to the bottom of those gear boxes which will make removal of 
the cover impossible.

High points to you for thinking ahead, but I think we just have to live with 
these things.
