help with euro pad install

[BOOMER]

Dropped the old fat bumper pads off the rear of my 88, to install the euro's do I have to drill new holes? And if I do, is there a templet or just line the pad up with the edge of the vertical rubber strip and drill away. Think i'll have a beer while i wait for an answer.
Thanks

I have to drill new holes?

from BOOMER

I did this and yes I had to drill new holes.

Take care

I did this on a '78 and I did not drill any new holes. I had to close the ones closest to the lisence plate with some plastic plugs.

You have to drill new holes or use a 1974 bumper or a euro one. You might have a fit problem between the pad and the lower valance dependiing on which euro pad you have, turbo or non turbo. There should be a part number on thr insidr of it

The Carrera pads are different than the SC and midyear pads - the valence is a different profile.

I have been told that you do not have to drill new holes if you get the Euro small Carrera pads, but you do if you get the SC or Turbo pads.

Don't know for sure...
