Little help please..

Hey guys, been a while since i have been on the site, however, a work problem has come up and since you guys have the sources, i ask for your help.

I am designing a graphic for a 2 dr. Alero. Now, as he has left, and my alero is no more, I was curious if someone owning a 2dr. Alero could measure the rear window.. Longest points in width and longest points in height, also to the inside of the rubber molding/trim. there is no need to worry about the curvature of the glass in this case.

Oddly enough, the supplier of our car graphics couldnt provide a rear shot. I have all the scaled line drawings of the Alero from all other angles (could be handy to some folk on here if they ever need it!!!)

Thanks guys.
swat.

yea, i know, i wasnt asking people to drop everything, but figured someone would be able to quickly grab 2 measurements over the span of 24 hours. Instead i get replies like Adam337.

cheers for looking into it double0alero.

Jackyl.. Long time no talk mate.. I think they are close, but not sure just how close.. These graphics gotta be within an inch of perfection... (hahaha) Anyways, no worries fella.

I have a 4door so I can't give ya the measurements.

But to clarify something you said, 16.5 hours is not 24 hours. Especially considering people had to sleep in some of that time, they're not vampires. Also not everyone checks this everyday or reads every post.

I suggest that you change the tude if ya want anybody to help you. There probably was someone that was gonna return your post, but after seeing your smart ass comment, said F**k Ya.

dude freakin chill. swat is upstanding member of this community. god forbid he has a sense of urgency when it comes to work.

Oldsnut · 10-25-2006, 07:27 PM

Maybe I overreacted a little, but guys like that just burn me. I deal with people like him at work. I don't need to see it here. Give people some time to respond.

doubleN0alero · 10-25-2006, 09:40 PM

alright swat, i hope i got what you're looking for....

Outside the trim 15 7/8'' high 21 1/2'' long
Inside the trim 14 1/4'' high 17 3/4'' long

i would do the conversion for you, or measured it in metric, but we dont have a metric tool here at the house and its dark...oh and cold...let me know if thats not what you're looking for, i'll take my tape to work with me tomorrow so i could do it again during the day

jackal2000 · 10-25-2006, 10:52 PM

1" = 2.54cm

tikklemynuts · 10-27-2006, 03:45 PM

DoubleO Cheers for the measurements fella.... I have it in the computer and setup at the moment.. Oddly enough my bro is stopping by my place tonight for the first time in years with my ole ho. (in all its NON-glory)
Thanks again..

Oldsnut, I am not going to harp on you as you dont know the history. Given i have a new name.. none of the newer members have a clue who i was. but i have been around for many many years...I helped design Aleromod calendars and various Tshirt designs... Show decals and ASS related designs. So, i was asking for immediate help, and hoped someone could have provided it ASAP, as i had also been under pressure at times to create things for people on this site.

Jackyl.. Cheers for the kind words mate... Good to know people still recognize some past efforts.
