roll-up cover mount location?

Do all interior side panels have the hole locations indented for the roll-up cargo cover? The black panels I swapped into my wife's GTA do not have holes. Any help?

all the ones I've seen do.

I don't know how to cut them out though, if you figure it out let me know. (I have the same problem)

Re: roll-up cover mount location?

It should have the location lolded on the inside of the trim panel. Are you adding the roll-up shade to a car that didn't have the option? If so, you may want to know that there is a bracket spot welded to the car inside of the trim panel that the shade receiver screws into. I cut it out of a junker and pop-rivited it to mine.

The car originally had the option. I swapped the tan interior for black and lost the holes. I was hoping to find nicer black panels that had the holes in them, but that may never happen. so, I quess I'll use these.
