Default Harness bar template

Hi Guys,
I'm mid way through fitting a Vetteworks Sharkbar to my C6, but it didn't come with any instructions, or the template needed to drill the sail panels. I've found the instructions but am stuck without the template. Does anyone have a copy they could scan please? I've got to get the interior back in ready for the drive to Le Mans later in the week. I have tried contacting Dan at Vetteworks for a couple of weeks but no reply to my email yet.

Thanks, Dave

Help! Before the drill comes out, does anyone have the Sharkbar template please?

That took a few hours, but the harness bar is in. In the absence of a template the best I could do was use this photo: https://z06life.files.wordpress.com/...1/template.jpg
It took a bit of trial and error using that image, pilot holes and a lazer but my wife and I are pretty pleased with the result. Of course it would have been easier if Vetteworks had included instructions and the template.




I need to find suitable seats next. I had bought a pair of used Recaro's from a Vauxhall Corsa VXR Nurburgring (pretty sure you won't have these in the States?), but sadly they are just too big, even with the plastic sides removed. Not sure I want full race seats, so as to retain some road comfort, but haven't got a big budget to spend either.

These were a tight fit but came out pretty nice
