If you have the original boot lid use a piece of heavy thick paper, place the paper over the holes ensuring the top edge of the paper is level with boot lid edge , centred, mark the holes, transfer to new boot lid.

Using masking tape stuck to boot lid mark the holes, drill a pilot hole remeasure again and complete the job.

Regards
