Use a paint pen, or nail polish, and put a dab on top of each post. Carefully position the body where you want it, and let it touch the posts.

The paint / nail polish will leave a dot on the underside of the body, at the location of posts. You can then drill the holes at those dots.

If you plan to be mounting bodies regularly, you could also pick up one of the ProtoForm magnetic body mounting kits.....
