Ha ha - I think the 'fitting' guys at the San Francisco British Dealership
may have been in a hurry too - just measured my original TR4 trunk lid (hanging
in parents rafters since 1976) and license plate mounting holes measure
exactly 8 3/4" from bottom edge.. (where's the darn S-T dealer instruction shee
t
when you need it?)

I'd hoped Jonmac would recollect that license plate holes were all
drilled on Fridays during happy hour. So that they might be anywhere
from 8" to 8 1/2" and sometimes drilled into a door or front wing by
mistake. In which case, factory workers simply installed a side-view
mirror in the misplaced hole. :)
