Hi There,
I bought a body plug kit for my 69 and the kit came with 12 plugs, 10 the same and 2 larger but the removable type, which go in the trunk drop offs.
The 10 left, there are 6 total for the rear wheel wells, 2 for the rear seat pans, and I don't know where the other two go?
There is two more needed in the front rocker locations but these have 1" holes and require larger plugs I see sell separately?
Any Ideas where the other two go? Thanks.

Mark, Check out this discussion at the Team Camaro site: Body PlugsThe last answer seems to be an interesting possibility. What would it cost the vendors to put a single sheet of paper in the bag showing a rough diagram identifying the locations?

Thank you, but those are not the ones I am referring too. I do have these. The left over plugs are 3/4" diameter (I think) and the same as the wheel house plugs. The cowl plugs are different style and sold separately. I can only think that the kit is wrong because I still need two plugs of 1" diameter for the front rocker area at the floor pan. those are also sold as a different set.
I do see a similar hole in the rear frame rails that could be a possibility, but I don't recall removing anything previously. Still looking for ideas. Thanks.
