Title: Fiber optic rear deck pod mounting holes
Post by: DAVEN1256 on May 14, 2013, 01:44:04 PM

Does anyone know or have the mounting holes diameters and spacing for the rear pod of the Vigilite (fiber optics) option on a 68? These are the three holes (one large and two small) drilled in the piece of metal between the rear package shelf and the rear window. That piece of metal was replaced on my car and the shop who did the work re-drilled the holes in the new piece but didn't get them quite in the right place. Off center and the pod sit a little crooked. I am thinking of plugging those holes and re-drilling them in the correct spot. I looked in the AIM which shows all the dimensions for the pods on the tops of the fenders but nothing for the rear. Maybe those holes were drilled by Fisher Body.

I  sure I can figure it out on my own but would like to see the dimensions if they are published somewhere.

Thanks.....Dave

Those holes were drilled by Fisher Body, and they also installed the complete rear section of the Vigilite system; Chevrolet only installed the front system.
