i didnt put mine in where the rubber hood stops were..since i thought my hood would need more stability i left the rubbers in cause i put a cutout in the hood for the cowl.. but anyway i got mine from summit, once i had them mounted where i wanted i put grease on top of them then slowly let the hood down then pulled the hood back up and it showed me where to start drilling.. its really a peice of cake if you have more questions just ask
