most templates that are used for sidemarker placement are measured off the moldings.

 

just get jdm fenders

I thought they were measured by the fender wells?

 

just have someone measure from the bottom of the fender to the top of the side molding. take a grease pencil and draw a line.... done. you have temporary side moldings so you can then use the template. i'll measure it out for you when i get out of class.

COrrect.

 

i know its not pretty, but i'm bored, so enjoy.


from the middle of the bottom of the fender, between the door and the wheel well as shown in my crappy pic. straight up from there is 10 1/4". there is the top of the side molding. take a grease pencil (easily removed once done) and make a like across, so you have a reference point for where the template shows the top part of the side molding as shown in StrokeDC2's post.

hope that helps, that should get you well on your way to getting those side markers installed. post up some pics when you are done.

have fun!
