Side trim hole location?

My 65 Fleetside never had side trim and I never drilled any prior to paint. I plan to 3m the trim on as I’ve seen on this forum. The trim strip was not painted on either and I plan to use a vinyl stripe between the trim. If someone could give me the vertical measurements from the crease down to the top and bottom holes I’ll run the vinyl trim width at that location. Thanks.

These are the holes I want to locate but not actually drill so I know where to put my stripe.

Is it on this one? I'm sorry I don't know if it's my monitor but I can't read the numbers. Do they use the crease to measure from?

I got some info from a guy who measured his holes for me. He says the top row of holes is 1 7/8" down from the crease to center of holes. The second row of smaller holes is 2 1/2" down from that, center to center. So the stripe is 2 1/2" wide.

I plan to do the same exact trim addition with the 3M and vinyl stripe to my '65 one day, so this thread will come in handy one day when I need the measurements.

Thanks, and Good Luck!

It will take some measuring and figuring, especially where the front of the stripe curves up but I have the measurements I need to get started.
