Default Anyone got a nose piece for a dimension?

Need to get this dimension if anyone has a spare nose piece lying around? Actually, probably need it fitted and without the lights installed like this picture.

As accurate as you can get Paulyy. That is with the light buckets out, yes?
Thanks

well my buckets are in, but because of the gap it should still be the same? i'll use proper measuring tools so should be the same.

So have you measured a straightline Paulyy or with the curvature of the light cover? I believe we need the actual distance (as the crow flies so to speak) rather than the extra distance that the light covers would add.

Chris, if you could still measure yours just so we have a comparison. Thanks a bunch guys.

i didn't measure the curvature of the light covers.

i was going to use the vernier but it was to short so i got a ruler and went on top of the light cover and by eye i got my size. it looks pretty spot on.

Paulyy, can you check that thread out as someone else has posted and their measurements are quite different to yours. This is why I think we need to get a few guys to measure. Thanks so far.

Dimension 'A' should be easy and I don't even think the light cover needs to be off.

Can a couple people measure theirs please. Sorry to be a pain but the guy needs to get this right.

thanks
