Need measurements for 70 dart Hood pins install

[73dart360]

Does anyone have the measurements where to drill the hood for a hood pin kit? and how big the hole is ?

 

[ScampMike]

see - the thing with that is that there are several different kits and many different locations to mount them - no one answer is correct

Aren't the holes already there?

what year?? my 71 had holes already on the underside of the hood..

The hole should already be in your fender as seen in the pic. As far as hood hole it is easier to line up and mark the hole from the underside when the grille is off and the hood is down.

That's what I would do, then everything is accessible and less chance of scratches on your new paint.
