cab mount replacement question..

As stated previously..I have already started cutting into the driver side mounts. The way I believe I will do this is to cut out the majority of the whole mount..then possibly leave where the mount welds to the body still intact then I will put the new mount on then weld. Would this be ok to do? I have no other way besides a cutting wheel and I'm afraid ill cut through the floor if I do cut out the flat weld lips.

I believe they are but I can't see them! I was going to cut them out but then realized I could jot find the welds? So I thought that if I cut around the weld tabs then the new mounts would fit over. I'm also doing this while the cab is still on the body
