Cheri - sorry to hear about your blowout. They can cause quite a bit of damage underneath. When we had our blowout we had a hole about the size you described to the rear of the wheel well on the same side as you did (luckily we had done the wheel well mod and the wheel well didn't get hurt much, just got kind of banged up). I went to OSH and bought a small piece of sheet metal, cut it to size with some sheet metal shears, plugged up the hole above the level of the sheet metal with some spray foam, and then (can't remember now) either used the pop riveter to attach it or sheet metal screws. The pop riveter was interesting for me, I'd never heard of or used one before doing the ww mod.

Ours was on the way home too, and on a really hot day after traveling for a long while. At least we didn't have our cat with us on that trip.
