My car originally had a luggage rack. The original deck lid was replaced. Wish I kept it for reference.
Is there a printable template or measurements that will help the drilling process?
If anyone has done this what are the tricks and secrets?
Thanks!

Okay, so do you have any holes in the underside bracing of the trunk lid ? That's how I figured it out...there was two 1" (roughly) size holes where the rear corner mounts go....Drilled up through one of those then started measuring off the other holes.

Thanks guys!!!
I do have those areas Alan.
Where is a good place to get the riv-nuts?

Is there any techniques or tricks to drill the holes? I know using tape is important.
Is there one tape better than another?

I've got a loose Cuda deck lid with factory luggage rack holes if I can be of any help or you want to borrow it LMK.
