In Reply to: Cowl lights - I need measurements for drilling new holes. posted by Joe Cimoch on April 09, 1997 at 08:43:23:
: I'm putting a set of cowl (parking) lights on the '68 WM300. Cowl lights didn't come on the '68 so I need some dimensions to drill holes to get these installed. Two measurements should do it. One up from the seam where the body panels meet. and one from the front or back of the panel where these go. Or anything else that works.

Joe,
Wish I had a scanner, but here are the measurements
off of 51 cab. From body seam below lights, holes
are 1 1/2" (seam to center). From edge of door, rear
hole is 3 9/16" to center, center hole is 4 3/4"
to center, and front hole is 5 1/2" to center.
Front and rear holes are 1/4" and center hole is
1/2". Make a template with a piece of matboard or
equivalent and compare to hole and studs on cowl
light cups.
Hope this is some help to you.
