Hood Blister Location

Hey all, I'm gonna be putting some hood blisters on soon, and I'd really appreciate information as to their exact location on the hood. Just give me measurements to the stock location. Thanks.

You need an Iroc hood or a hood that originally had blisters to put blisters on your car... you drop them down into the recesses and through the holes, and you bolt them up!

You could at them to a regular camaro hood as well under neath the skin they still have it marked where they are supossed to be, there was a thread like 2 months ago about how it was cold and people could see where the blisters or the louvers would go.

Hawks has the blisters for sale that fit a standard hood. I just need the measurements. I've seen the cold hood thing too, But I can't depend on it being cold when I do it. The measurements would be greatly appreciated. Someone just go out and get me these measurements.
1. Distance from Top of hood to where blisters start.
2. Distance from bottom.
3. Distance from left and right (widest point)
4. Distance between the two blisters. (widest point)

Thanks.

Ebay junkyard.

My Brother in law had bought a set of after market blisters & They didnt fit the Iroc hood he had on the car.
