Guys,

The workshop manual says that it should be 332mm in from the left handside and 20mm up from the bottom. Has anybody got an original car that they can check this, as 20mm "looks" too low and I thought 30mm was about right.

Pedantic I know!

Luckily, you caught me playing with my tape measure.

Mine is 23mm from the edge of the boot. Bear in mind that the edge is curved: this is 23mm from the outermost point of the curve (ie placing the metal tape measure "hook" on the boot's edge and measuring upwards).

The outermost point of the lower curve of the "t" in "turbo" is 320mm from the left boot edge - measured by a horizontal line parallel to the lower horizontal boot edge. The left boot edge is not vertical, so 332mm may be correct for the distance from (say) the left end of the cross of the "t" to the boot edge, or some other variant.

HTH.
