Im trying to find the link of a DIY C-notch on the Citi Golf...

Is there any cables running through that might get cut?

Wow that's an extreme notch. I took about 15mm off with a dremel and a grinding bit and that gives me enough clearance to be low enough to rub my tyre against the arches before the drive shaft grinds against the chassis even over bumps. I can guarantee that the amount I took off is insignificant in terms of effect to the structure. Unless you're on air you don't need such a hectic notch.

There's nothing to strengthen I just ground a bit off of the lip. Doesn't look anything like the image above.
