Default 69 rear spoiler measurement

I am adding a rear spoiler to my 69 and was wondering what the measurement is for placement,measuring from forward edge of trunklid to first set of holes?

If you are using a correctly made spoiler, all you do is drill holes in the
middle of the round cutouts you see for the spoiler studs that are in the
underlying framework on the underside of the deck lid. If you have one of the
trunk lids that was early production that doesn't have these holes drilled
from the factory, then you need to buy a deck lid that has them.

thanks,mine has cutouts but the repop spoiler only lines up with just one set of holes,so not sure if I shold use front holes or rear holes.of couse it changes location of spoiler either further forward or rearward by few inches.

The spoiler on my 68 is a repop, but the holes were already in the lid as it had a spoiler on it. Don't have the dimension from the front of the lid, but the rear edge of the spoiler falls about at the corner of the quarter where it starts down. If I get a chance, I can get a measurement. The holes in my lid all fall inside the factory holes in the underside of the lid.
