Default 68,69 alarm lock hole location

I was wondering if anyone can tell me the alarm lock hole location in the rear tail panel for a 68,69? I can't find it anywhere!!! Thanks Dustin.

Hi dz,
The AIM indicates the center/line for hole for the alarm switch is located 5.9" above the upper edge of the recess in the fiberglass for the license plate.
Regards,
Alan

I just measured from the top lip of the chrome plate bezel to the center of the lock hole and it's 5.7" so 5.9" to the edge of the recess behind would be right on the money.

Default Lock location


thank you guys, here is the end result, my father didn't want the alarm in the car and had the hole filled in the early 70's but I want it back in, I just sent the horn out for rebuilt to corvette stop in California. Hope to have it working again soon, also ordered a new Alark harness from zip corvette! Thanks all for the replies Dustin

Sorry I wasn't able to answer yesterday Dustin, I was moving my son. Great job finding and installing the correct location. Looks great.
