Strut tower cutting for coilovers with camber plates

I'm about to buy a set of Megan coilovers...and I realize that the strut towers need to be trimmed in order to gain full adjustability for the integrated camber plates.

I'm a bit hesitant in cutting off pieces of my car . Does anyone here have pictures to illustrate what kind of cutting is required for this sort of setup?

Thanks!

You don't need to trim anything to adjust the megans. I had mine at full negative camber without cutting. Meb gave me the great tip of searching for a ball end allen key to make the adjustments.

The adjustment screws can be moved to different holes to allow more motion as well.
