Glad you got it Ok

top edge follows the top fold of the guard where it folds down next to the bonnet. It should also line up with the cutout for the pillar and the bottom edge roughly follows the crease in the guard above the side indicator.

found this for you ..... looks similar to what I did

Note* He uses an 89mm hole saw. The one I copied (@ the wrecker I bought the snorkel from) was about 100mm hence the 104mm hole in my inner guard. 104mm allowed easier fitting of the "grommet" which wasn't a full circle (cut??) and now has a 15mm gap where it doesn't matter. the larger cutout on the inner guard doesn't seem to have any real drawbacks and the advantage of allowing a slight inaccuracy in positioning .

something else I did was, drilled the holes in the guard oversize and round instead of elongated and used a bigger washer inside the guard. The washer was also isolated from the guard (plated steel vs alloy = corrosion) using some tyre tube cut bigger then the washer and then punched for the stud........
I think you get the picture
