- Use a length of masking tape or magnetic
strip in order to mark the location.
 
- Use the following dimensions in order to mark the proper position of the
emblem/nameplate on the body side:
 
| •  | 35.0 mm +/- 2 mm (1.4 in +/- 0.1 in) (D)
from the vertical edge |

- Align the emblem/nameplate with the previous length of masking tape or
magnetic strip.
