Looking good. I marked my holes by making a paper template with the holes matching up to the plate on the airbag for the fitting/bolt holes. Taped it to the bag with some painter's tape. Had tape under the template sticky side up as well. So when I raised up the trailing arms till the bags touch the frame, you loosen the tape holding the paper template to the bag and attach the tape that was sticky side up to the frame....drop the trailing arm/bags and the paper template is left behind. Mark, repeat, and drill
