The fly off handbrake is easily left on, if only partly.

The squeak stops after a while, then you'll use the handbrake again and back it will come.

If you can, you may want to cut the tunnel part way along and make brackets/joints to reconnect rather than taking out the heater etc.
Also, if you're in there anyway, maybe think about adding the backbone brace. Someone here will have a picture or two of this area. I'm not sure if it can be done with the body on, does anyone have any thoughts?
