I need dimensions for the base of the hood ornament. Length, width, height. Want to print it so I can get my hood ornament mounted. Thank you in advance.

You are talking this?
Not sure if you can tell, but it tapers in width and height. I'm assuming the center of it is also scalloped to clear the ridge in the hood?
If someone has one off the rig they could probably get more accurate measurements than I can with it on the hood.

Yes. If you can get the length, width front and back, and height at front and back, I can work the rest myself. My truck didn't come with one but my wife got me one for a gift that I love and want to install on this truck. I could just drill a hole and mount it but my style is overcomplicate things to make it look cool.
I’d bet Kennyw could just sell you a new one. Probably won’t be much $$$
Length against the hood is 3.345" at the hood ridge
Length against the hood at the extreme edges ~3.25"
Length along the top edge (above the "step") is 2.766". That is point to point as both ends are angled (the longest length)
Length along the top edge corner to corner (shortest length) ~2.67"
Front height below the "step" is .430"
Front height at the ridge is ~.613" (had to eyeball it)
Rear height below the step at the hood ridge is .067"
Rear height on the side, below the step, is .140"
The "stepped" portion is .10" tall
The "step" is .059" wide
Pedestal for the ornament is .119" at the front, blending into the overall height at the trailing edge of the ornament
Base width front edge is .804" before it rounds
Base width rear edge is .494"
I'll get some better pics to help associate the dimensions with the actual piece

Keep in mind those OEM hood ornaments are spring-loaded to avoid breakage if hit or bumped up against.
Legen-dary.
If mine hits something, bigger issues are at hand.
