Here are the measurements for the holes

I couldn't find the dressmaking tape measure so I had to use a steel rule, and some of the measurements might seem a bit odd, but they are as close as I could get using this rule, so hopefully they'll be useful

I don't have the original o/s cab door or the o/s sliding door cover so I wasn't able to get any measurements for them. I also didn't measure the o/s rear corner - but the hole positions looked the same as the n/s rear corner - but if you want me to measure them I will

I didn't measure the position of the holes - in relation the swage line as they looked bang on central to me.

cab door (n/s)
7 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 38mm from front edge of door
Centre of Hole 2 is 115mm from centre of Hole 1
Centre of Hole 3 is 116mm from centre of Hole 2
Next there's a gap of 29mm from centre of Hole 3 to the left most edge of the wing mirror hole
There's also a 29mm gap from the right most edge of the wing mirror hole to the centre of Hole 4
Centre of Hole 5 is 233mm from centre of Hole 4
Centre of Hole 6 is 233mm from centre of Hole 5
Centre of Hole 7 is 233mm from centre of Hole 6
Finally there's a gap of 18mm from centre of Hole 7 to the right most edge of the door

b-post (n/s)
2 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 10mm from front edge of post
Centre of Hole 2 is 13mm from centre of Hole 1
Finally there's a gap of 10mm from centre of Hole 2 to the right most edge of the post

sliding door (n/s)
5 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 20mm from front edge of the door
Centre of Hole 2 is 295mm from centre of Hole 1
Centre of Hole 3 is 295mm from centre of Hole 2
Centre of Hole 4 is 295mm from centre of Hole 3
Centre of Hole 5 is 295mm from centre of Hole 4
Finally there's a gap of 20mm from centre of Hole 5 to the right most edge of the door

sliding door cover (n/s)
5 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 10mm from front edge of cover
Centre of Hole 2 is 297mm from centre of Hole 1
Centre of Hole 3 is 300mm from centre of Hole 2
Centre of Hole 4 is 300mm from centre of Hole 3
Centre of Hole 5 is 280mm from centre of Hole 4
Finally there's a gap of 10mm from centre of Hole 5 to the right most edge of the cover

Rear corner (n/s)
4 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 20mm from front edge of seam
Centre of Hole 2 is 135mm from centre of Hole 1
Centre of Hole 3 is 135mm from centre of Hole 2
Centre of Hole 4 is 135mm from centre of Hole 3
Finally there's a gap of 10mm from centre of Hole 4 to the edge of the panel

Rear hatch (n/s)
5 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 27mm from front edge of hatch
Centre of Hole 2 is 300mm from centre of Hole 1
Centre of Hole 3 is 300mm from centre of Hole 2
Centre of Hole 4 is 300mm from centre of Hole 3
Centre of Hole 5 is 300mm from centre of Hole 4
Finally there's a gap of 10mm from centre of Hole 5 to the right most edge of the door

sliding door (o/s)
5 holes
Centre of Hole 1 is 32mm from front edge of the door
Centre of Hole 2 is 297mm from centre of Hole 1
Centre of Hole 3 is 297mm from centre of Hole 2
Centre of Hole 4 is 297mm from centre of Hole 3
