While my engine lid is off, I am modifying it for the late style rain tray. The tray I have is a little warped so I would rather not use it to set the mounting points.
Can someone with a late lid measure the fore and aft distance between the mounting holes? I think both sides are the same but please measure both to be sure. Thanks |

Thanks - that was quick. Part of the reason the center dimension is greater is that the holes are not parallel to the centerline.
Anyway, all done. Your measurements make sense because the driver's side comes out pretty much dead center on the diagonal reinforcment. Here is the piece I had to add for the passenger side.  |
