Step 4 – Once the template is located properly you can hold or tape the
template in place and drill the first hole using the 1/16” Bit. Then
use the 13/64” Bit and re-drill that same hole through the template
and hood. (See Figure 2)
Step 5 – Now fasten one of the supplied 10-32 Pan Head Screws with nylon
lock nut through the hole you just drilled. This will hold the template

in place when drilling the second hole.
Step 6 – Drill the second hole in the opposite corner (bottom left) using the same process as in Step 4. Fasten the
other supplied pan head screw with nylon lock nut through this hole. Now the template should be held in place
securely enough to drill all the other holes.
NOTE: USE 1/16” BIT AS PILOT HOLE BEFORE DRILLING WITH 1/4” BIT TO
BETTER ENSURE ACCURACY! DO NOT MOVE TEMPLATE UNTIL STEP # 9.
Step 7 – Using 1/16” Bit, drill the small holes (50 total), then drill the holes in the four corners of each cutout
(24 holes total, 6 cutouts)
Step 8 – Using a marker trace the inside perimeter of the cutouts. You’ll use these as reference lines when cutting
these out.
Step 9 – Now carefully remove the template, making sure you don’t scratch the paint. Using the ¼” Bit, re-drill all
the holes. Take your time and drill slowly so you don’t dent the hood. You’ll need to drill through the
hood and hood supports in four locations. See NOTE and Figure 3 on the next page.
