We have new steel inner fenders and some of the holes need to be drilled. Does anyone know a trick way to drill holes for the front side markers and turn signals?? Do you know what size hole to drill for the stock rubber grommet?

Thanks.........bk

If you don't have the manual for your car, go out and buy one now. It has all this info in there and it's $$$$ well spent.

I'm guessing you have a 70, based on your need to drill a couple holes. I took mine to a sheet metal shop and had them do it(quick and easy).
If I remember correctly one was around 7/8" and one was 1 1/8". Check your old inner fenders to be sure or measure the grommets on your wiring harness.
If you want to do it yourself, the sheetmetal shop used a couple of small hole saws mounted to a drill. The teeth on the hole saws looked too big, but were not and did a nice job.
