Steve,
Okay, a couple things here. The instructions I had in the trunk were not for the shocks kit, I thought I had left them in there. Very, very sorry. Also, I can't confirm that we have the same kit. I couldn't remember if I bought mine from Craig (there are so many knockoffs, which sucks). The dimensions I have assume that you are mounting this to the lid itself, not the pivot arm. Craig's kits now seem to be mounting to the arm. Either way, I have included pictures and dimensions for you since you've been trying to get this done for a week now.
The brackets that attach to the fender reside just under the drain channel. The edge with the pivot ball will be flush with the inner portion of the channel. The bottom hole will be drilled at exactly 16 and 1/8 in from the edge of the fender point. MAKE SURE YOU MOVE THE WIRES BEFORE YOU DRILL! See pics:

It still opens plenty high. Also, if your kit is different, I'm sure the lower mounts are at least the same. You could then "eyeball" the lid/pivot arm mount once you get it in. Or you could wait for Craig's instructions if this isn't clear.
