Default Wind Wings and Visors

After finally getting my wipers going satisfactorily, i am now going to attack the wind wings and sun visors. When i bought mine, Ian did not drill any holes so I have blanks of both visors and wings and some mounting hardware. My question is: Is there any templates available to get the position of the holes correct? I have the holes in the windscreen, just not in the plastic visors and wings.

With a bump steer kit also on the way, I am about to get REAL serious.

Sloth, it might be best to mount the hinges on the screen frame, then offer the visors to the hinges and mark them where it is appropriate?

I would centralise the visors and mount the wind wings so they have a full range of movement (mine came pre drilled but my wings hit the body work before they swing back flat)

Thanks Boxhead. Does it matter which way the hinges go? i.e. should the flat piece that attached to the visor face up and attach to the underside of the visor of face down and attach to the topside of the visor (assuming the visor is parallel to the road)?

On mine I have the flat at the top, this allows the visor to fold down flat against the inside of the creen.
If you fit them the other way around it will hit the hinge before it folds half way down.
