All the panels can be removed in less than an hour. 15 minutes on a lift. For oil and trans service there are 2 panels 16" square. To change the oil only one panel is removed. I use a small electric drill. Takes about 2 minutes. For a 2 year inspection 50% of the panels come off. I use a private lift and then drive across the street to an inspection station. I also get the alignment checked with the inspection and cry if I hit anything requiring a realignment. The mechanic I've been using actually put most of the panels back on for as a favor. I'm not sure why he only makes $12 on an inspection.
