I could use your template to make my install a little easier if I end up making my own.

If your talking about the AC unit the swap plates I have won't let the bracket mount to the block. There's a couple of work a-rounds without spending a ton of money though.

I have the bracket just have not done it yet. Looks pretty easy and it puts it in a better location keeping you from having to notch the cross member.
I've seen that fix and am really considering it for mine also.
These guys make a decent priced bracket to raise it also.
