Can anyone with a GT factory wing open their decklid and measure the distance between the mounting nuts? I need the distance from the center of each stud. Also does the notchback wing have different spacing on the mounts or the same as the GT?

Early wingstands only fit notchies, when fastback GT was introduced in 86 all the wingstands fit both body styles, having three mounting holes.

This is a pic of a notchback decklid with the factory wing removed. I assume the drilled holes would be for the factory wing and the green dot that I added would be where the GT mounting studs would be located?



This is a pic to the factory wingstand and I assume the empty hole at the bottom would be to relocate the stud to mount on either vehicle?

Can anyone get me those simple measurements? I just need a stud to stud measurement from under the decklid.

I think everyone is looking under their decklid and seeing one of the studs hides down in a deep recess, making an accurate measurement difficult. Mine is wingless, so I'm no help. I'm not super confident where the second hole is supposed to be.

Easiest way to measure accurately would be to measure the spacing between the holes on the top side of the decklid. Surely someone out there has a spare decklid with wing removed they can measure? Help the man out.

Crap, I forgot about that. It's impossible to get an accurate measurement. How about this......anyone with a wingstand in hand, please measure the stud distance and let me know
