o snap, i feel my pop ups trembling

 

951 / S2 update

I remove the front nose of my 931 and put the 951 nose on.
Now I would like to validate the geometry with some measurements.
Please take a moment and pull the measuring tape on your car.
Measure “A” will be easy and can be done by everyone, but “B” can only be done by those without headlight on there car.
Please use metric measurement (centimetre and millimetre).

Thank you for your input

 

Looks like that measurement could be done by someone with a spare 951 nose piece lying around, no?

 

bump

 

I will pull my nose piece when I get home from work in 9 hours.

i'll try to measure in the next days...wont promise anything tho...as i'm super busy at work

 

Just looking at that picture...does the measurement need to be made without the light installed? In other words, do you need to remove the curvature of the light cover for this dimension?

 

Yes

 

OK, I am home early from work today, I'll pull my nose panel and get you those measurements if you still need them!

Jeff

 

Yes, still need them
Thanks

 

OK! Off to the toolbox right now!

Measurement "A" is about 32mm, BUT if the nose panel/fender gap is different it could vary by a couple mm on different cars. Mine is pretty consistent, but my fender may be outboard a bit?

Measurement "B" is exactly 29mm.

I took pictures, but the camera angle and the tape measure, etc. made it so they wouldn't do much good. I triple checked the measurements, though. It is obvious in person.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Jeff

 

Do you mean 32cm and 29cm?

 

No, I measured a model car. I figured you could scale ot up LOL.

Yes, of course, cm. Sorry, man. I was in a hurry typing, had to reassemble it to run an errand!
