I went through this a few years ago. See forum post: https://www.saac.com/forum/index.php?topic=22926.0

The hole diameters are not called out in the drawing. Best to use a caliper to measure the diameter of the widest part of the socket and use a step drill bit to work up that hole size. Maybe go 1/16" smaller and then use a file to make sure the socket fits snugly. Good luck!

I need to replace the beltline moldings on my 69 GT500. I read many good reviews about Daniel Carpenters weatherstripping kits, however, they don't seem to make the door beltline inner/outer weatherstrip. Repops and PUI beltline kits gets mixed reviews. Would appreciate any recommendations. Thank you.

I replaced all of my interior and exterior (except for headlights) filament bulbs with LEDs from HiPo parts. They have a complete list of their LED bulbs for 69-70 Mustangs/Shelby's at https://www.hipoparts.com/1969-70-ford-mustang/. Their flasher, however, didn't work for me. I ended up using the Bespokepower BSP-FLSH 1.

On a trunk lid related question - were there any factory markings on the underside of the trunk lid, like chalk marks indicating assembly dates?

Going to have to fab the Z clips for the qtr panel side scoops (2 per scoop). Would anyone be able to provide the dimensions or have a dimensioned drawing of the clip? Seems Branda stopped carrying them a few years back. Thanks!

Yes please do. I ordered a quart from The Coating Store to test their silver jade out.

Thanks all for the replies!

Anyone with recent experience with re-painting a silver jade GT*? Getting ready to restore my GT500 to the original silver jade color (from black). I'd like to get as close as possible to the original color. Looking for recommendations on a paint supplier. Thanks.
