Manual antenna 1966
 

Hi,
I am about to install a manual antenna on the right front fender on my LeMans 1966.
I have an original style antenna with the correct base, designed to be attatched to the fender flange with a small screw.
I understand that I have to remove the fender, but I cant find any information of the correct location of the holes.
Can anyone help me with this?
If it is hard to get exact location or a template, I would apprechiate a few close up photos from a correct installation.

Best regards,
Peter Tillman

You don't need to remove the fender if you have the right adapter. Open the door and you should see a fairly small drilled and taped hole, that's what you're wanting.

OK, thanks
The problem is that I have to drill a hole in the upper skin of the fender for the base and it has to be in the correct location, otherwise the antenna would be in wrong angle

Don't have any loose fenders at the shop, but these may help.
The Antenna body will dictate the location based on the mounting tab location.
Once you get a center hole I would then use a step bit to slowly enlarge the hole.
Gasket & escutcheon allow for some hole "adjustment"

Thanks Jeff!
This will make it a lot easier.

I used one of these to make the hole and it cuts a very clean and neat hole:
