[urq] "Quattro" & "Audi" Decal Locations

[Louis-Alain Richard]

Well, on my car and on the June 1982 Car and Driver cover car, the decals
are placed at 77 mm from the left (bottom of the A), and 21 mm from the
right (center of the "o"), 15 mm from the bottom (the leg of the "q" is only
7 mm above). Like that, the decals are indeed centered over the black
plastic trim piece, but that is excluding the license plate lamp width. They
are centered visually over the ribbed section of the black panel.

I have also a March 13th 1980 Auto-Hebdo magazine (French Autoweek) and the
brown car featured in it show that exact location. There is also a small
rear pic of the white car from the famous 1980 Geneva auto show, same
location.

Hope this helps, 

Louis-Alain

I have 2 reliable listers telling me two different things. Mike says they
are centered over the black plastic trim panels, Bob Pastore is telling me
the "Audi" decal starts 13/16 inches from the left edge and the "quattro"
ends 13/16" from the right edge....

Anyone care to cast the deciding vote. Thanks to Mike and Bob for
responding....
