If you look closely at the body and door jamb areas where the boots were positioned, you will see pilot divots/sharp impressions that were used as pilots for the boot holes to be cut out.
The hard part is getting them cleanly cut out with the doors installed.

True. Especially since the one on the door is very large. Not sure how to do that, but, the doors are gutted at the moment, so could drill from the inside out.

My understanding is that the body side hole has 2 walls, and is open to the cowl side well, and requires a double seal on the boot?

I tried to take photos of the boot this morning but I couldn't open the door wide enough in the garage to take good photos. Will try on the weekend, weather permitting.
