Thanks for the quick response. I have found the measurements for the side Trim Stingray pieces However the AIM sheet for the rear Trim does not provide measurement or hole size info. :cry

Were they just filled in? On my '69, a previous owner filled all the holes for the emblems with bondo. All I did was reach inside with a pair of pliers and gave the part that oozed through a gentle wiggle. Voila!, perfect hole in the right place. Keep in mind I had it sanded down when I did this.

Ironically, I left the rear alone because I want to use gold later-model transfer lettering over the original Burgundy paint once it's done.

Thanks Hans
It looks like to me they had been filled in and new holes opened up in a previous job. What I am trying to do after repair is place the holes and trim in the original location. Regards Roger :chevy :thumbs:
