Need help with some dimensions....

[tbmcneill]

If someone's got a few minutes, I was wondering if you could go out and take a few measurements off your hood.

Specifically I need the following:
1. overall width at the firewall

2. overall width at the nose

3. height at the firewall

4. height at the nose (just before where the hood 'rolls' down to meet the grill)

5. distance between mounting points (center to center)

6. overall length

Thanks for the help-

matt-
I couldn't find the notes I wrote down, but here's the lucas wiring code I used to figure it out.... Lucas Wiring Color Codes (http://www.cruzers.com/~twakeman/LR/Lucaswirecode.htm)

I also pulled apart the back plate of the switch so I could see what part of the switch contacted which contacts as the key was turned.

Between the wiring code and that, I was able to figure out which wire went where.

Sorry, I don't have the 'quick fix' .... maybe someone who has their dash apart could give you the actual order.
