Steve,

I had a minor issue with lining them up correctly.

I cut the initial hole on the inside part of the hood ok, but then I used the stencils on the top part of the hood while the pins were resting underneath.

I cut the holes as is, and when it came time to latch the hood, the hood pin holes were too high by 2-4 mm, causing me to cut the hole lower into the hood and creating a gap on the high side.

When it comes times for you to cut the holes on the top section of the hood, set your templates up with the pins poking through the top part, and set the template down 3mm.
