Default fuel pump and access hole

Hello, new to the forums here, I have a '95 Z34 monte with the 3.4 engine. I recently had the fuel pump go out, and the shop that did the diagnostic said it would be around 600.00 to replace it. So, I decided I'd like to try and do it myself. Can someone tell me if there is an access hole somewhere under the back seat or in the trunk area that I can use to get to the fuel pump? In addition I guess it would be good to find out for sure that the fuel pump is inside the tank. If someone could write back and let me know about this topic I would be grateful. Thanks in advance for your answers.

well you can cut your own access hole...lol jk jk

i think you have to drop the tank, but thats not hard, and the reason its so much money is maybe it needed a new sending unit too, or they were just going to replace that, on a car thats 13 years old it might need it, it probably will actually
