Question Euro Side Marker Lights Placement

I'll try it again, anoyone out their have measurments or something from the factory to show where the holes go??? My 86 is a European car that had all the Euro stuff taken off years aga when it was brought to the US. The front fenders were changed out thus removing the side marke holes. The harness is their but I want to put the lights in the right place, you can only drill once.....

Using the amber ones that are installed on the front fenders just forward of the doors. I wish someone had a fender without the lights in the holes do I could get exact measurments. I think 2 holes per light have to be drilled???

I'm planning on adding a r/s mirror to my '81 RoW. Drilling holes in fenders does make a guy nervous.

Well, this is the best I could do with no light and no helping hands. Some of the pictures aren't that great because I had to hold the tape with one hand and the camera with another and couldn't get far enough awayl








Looks like ~15.75" from the rubber of the rocker to the center of the holes. ~3 15/16" from the door jam to the center of the larger hole, and ~4 7/8" from the door jam to the center of the smaller hole. These are estimants. Hope this helps, sorry I can't be more precise.
