Default 3dr Side moulding positioning

Hi folks,

Car is currently in the bodyshop having a few bits tidied up but I have asked the bodyshop to fit the side mouldings once they have finished the paint.

Whats the exact height the moulding should sit from the line on the body and how close to the aches should they sit away?

Some close up pics would be great also so I could email them over as want these done right as know you only really get one chance to get them in the right place..

Thanks
Gav

32mm above the swage line on the door apparently, OE strips came with an excess piece that lined up with the swage line and the tore off after the strip was fitted.

Remember to tell the bodyshop they are pure rubber if you bought from A.M.I and you have to be so careful as once their on they don't come off
