I am after the distance between the centre of bonnet washer jet hole to lip of HB bonnet (windscreen end) why on earth would I want to know this ?

 

I have a 4 banger LC and through sheer luck I have been able to buy a NOS bonnet spear. When fitted the spear is approx 1 cm too long on the bonnet and covers the washer jet hole.

 

I am guessing that the location of the factory stamped hole for the washer jet is different on HB and 4 banger LC / TA ?

Just found the HB part number for the hood ornament. It is the same as for the LC Torana.

The hood ornament you bought will probably be HK, T, G or EJ, EH or HD, HR or suit all Holden from EJ - HG.
