Front Sway Bar Reinforcement Plate Dimensions

Hello all, might be a long shot but does anyone have a front sway bar reinforcement plate they haven't installed yet? If so, I'd greatly appreciate some measured dimensions, primarily hole locations and overall plate sizing. I was looking at the MSW plates since they also have drain holes, but any plate will do. I'm looking for these dimensions to make my own and with my car in winter storage I can't take measurements until it comes back out. Thanks!

I have a Hotchkis kit that I haven't installed yet. Lmk if you want pics/dims of the plates that come with it.

Appreciate the offer, had a look at some of the install videos and it looks like the studs sit in the middle of the slots so unfortunately those plate dimensions won't give me a whole lot more than I already know. Found a post on zpost where the studs are M8 with 90 mm spacing, I may try to guesstimate overall plate size and drain hole locations from that skewed pic I posted

Alright, finally got around to getting a set waterjet - bear in mind that I made them before I could actually access my car, so the holes were a tad off. If you want to make your own the below dimensions are of the original plate for reference, before filing:

Essentially the holes for the studs were set to 90 mm apart, but the ones in my car were maybe 1-2 mm wider than that. The holes for drainage had to be filed towards the holes for the studs, maybe around 4-5 mm.

Hope this comes in useful for someone wanting to fab their own as well.

This is great. Thank you for sharing.
P.S. Proper drawing is mega!
