A4.2.2 BODY ALIGNMENT
The illustrations on pages 11 - Body Dimensions PLAN, and 13 -Body Dimensions SIDE VIEW, provide specifications
for damage assessment and location of replacement parts.
These dimensions must be strictly applied whether they are used for damage assessment, component location or post
repair verification.
The plan view MASTER datums are nominated on the right
-hand side of the body with the left-hand datums dimen- sioned from them. Therefore, the right-hand datums must be known to be correct before any other cross-ar dimen- sions are checked.
W: The right-hand side is always looking towards the front, from the rear of the vehicle.
All dimensions are derived from a single
(ZERO) datum point for all three axes; X for length, Z for height and V cross- car.

A4.6.6.2 Body-side Moulding - Fitfed Condition
A4.6.6 BODY-SIDE MOULDINGS
A4.6.6.1 Introduction
There are two types of moulding fitted to the standard wheelbase sedan.
The lower moulding is ‘self
-locating‘ on the body / door lower feature line and therefore provides a fixed datum for
the location of the upper moulding (wherefitted). Replacement lower mouldings will be supplied in a primed condition
and therefore must be finished in accordance with A4.6.3, this section.
