Hood Struts

I was wondering if anyone out there could let me know about hood struts. I have a 97 GT Coupe that originally came with just a prop rod. My wife hit a deer and crumpled the original hood. I bought a used one from a later model that has the 'nubs' for the struts.

My question is, where do the struts attach on the lower end? I just have the hood hinges that were original to my 97. There is a hole at the front edge of the lower hood hinge...does it attach there or is there a mounting point on the inner fender that may not be present on my early '97 (bought July 3, 1996). I would like to add struts so it's not so heavy to lift all the time. Any help appreciated!
