Hey guys i was hoping you overseas guys can help me out. I got some oem sidemarker repeater lights and i want to stick them in the same place as it is normally located on non us version cars. what i need is a measurement from the top of the duct in the fendor to the center of the light, and a measurement from the wheel well to the center of light. i figure those to distances will allow me to get pretty close to being in the correct spot. then any advice of cutting the fendor would be nice.



thanks

john

drilling through and cutting the fender makes me queezy

actually, umm i beleive all 93-96 cars have it in the same place. 96 + cars have em closer to the door and higher, more of a european look...

at least thats what it seems like when looking at cars with 96+ front turn signals vs 93-96 turn signals.



so if u were to get newer fender, the lights woild be where u r looking to place those.

as long as they dont interfere with the ings+1 side skirts that i am going to get then i dont care which year i get the measurements from.

you could just make a templete of the part of the fender where it meets

the wheel well, like 1/4 of the fender, make it from paper so you can

mail it in a envelope and he can tape it to his car to figure it out

yea thats basically all i want... or some points of reference so i know where the center of the hole/light is. then with the crappy corksport template i can make the hole.
