Well thanks to peer pressure and delivery pizza I got my door opening cut this evening.
I did some of the trimming and finer work with some putty knives that were heated on my Coleman Stove.

I think there should be bonus points for that. Well or at least it should make it clear I wish I was camping.

I cut the hole more or less large enough to hold the wooden frame but only expose the vertical bits.

In this picture you've got the top of the doorframe. You can see where I used my solder gun foam channel cutter to cut the relief for the 1x2 header, leaving behind the foam curves for the door!
There were some tricky bits.

Also the foam where it joins to the trailer floor came detatched when I was working with the hot putty knives. Gorilla glue also melts at high enough temps.

That's what's laying over the 1x4 footer there diagonally. In the big picture I've got it propped in place. Some glue and it will be just fine fit into the doorway.
I am sorry the photos look so terrible. My garage is very dim and I use a coleman lantern to bring the light up enough to work. (I only work with the garage door up and a big fan running so I don't have to worry about fresh air)
