    Gen 3 coupe hood cut outs

    does anyone have the template for the hood side cut outs that they can please post the dimensions for me. The cut outs on my kit were partly done, these were missed and I did not get the template.
    Thanks

    I ordered mine with the cutouts traced, but if you let me know what measurements you need, I'd be glad to get them for you.

    I can take a look tonight to see if I've got the template. I also had them traced and I can't remember if the template was included in one of the boxes.

    I am looking for the side cut out measurements for the latch and vent. reference from the latch finger dimple or the template dimensions will work too.
    Thanks

    How about this. I dimensioned a pic of the template FF provided with my #59 Gen 3 Coupe. I think this should be enough to get you going. It locates off the dimple, as you mentioned, and the bottom along the edge of the body. Hope this helps!
