#1 Rear Jaguar Badge / Hatch prop

Post by I-Wen Foo » Fri Jun 28, 2013 11:16 am

Hello All,
my painter has done an excellent job for covering all the holes on the rear hatch of my FHC.
Could someone kindly let me know the distance from the bottom of the rear Jaguar badge to the bottom edge of the hatch?
Oh and also the distance of the rubber rest from the pivot bracket of the hatch prop (the rest that holds the prop when not in use). I've managed to locate the position of the prop and mounting bracket.

Thanks for any help!
Best regards,
I-Wen

put your hand inside the hatch and you should be able to feel the filler in the holes. Be VERY careful drilling out the filler!

The 'JAGUAR' badge holes are about 4" up from the bottom of the hatch.

The first screw hole for the rubber holder is 8" from the nearest screw hole of the stay bracket.

No sign of filler where the badge is, but I'll have a feel around on the inside of the frame where the rubber rest is...
Thanks guys!
