Don't pay attention to these smart asses. Yes, the originals were indeed cut with a torch. You obviously want to know WHERE to cut out. I believe that if the tunnel is original, you will find four little dimples representing where the four screws go to hold down the shift boot trim piece. Drill those out, screw the trim piece in place, and you can use it as a template to mark the hole.

Hope that helps. If not, let me know. I believe I have some template instructions at the office.

That hole is for a 1967 car and probably a automatic not correct for a 69 4speed.
