General positions where the units were located under the dash are shown in service letter Vol12 #19 of Oct. 1, 1938 which you can download. The actual templates were part of the instructions in the accessory kit and probably not many survived. Possibly someone has one or Kanter might even have a NOS unit in that warehouse and maybe could copy the instructions.

If nothing comes along you can carefully place the heater face down on a soft surface and lay a piece of thin cardboard or heavy paper over the tubes and mounting bolts. Press down and make an impression of the tubes and bolts then cut and trim so you have a good template. If the tubes and mounting bolts are long enough to provide space for a pencil, you could stand the tubes on the paper and trace where the openings need to be.
