Red face GLS63 Correct emblem/badge placement

I'm looking for a fellow GLS63 owner to provide measurements showing the correct OEM badge/emblem placement on a GLS63 (mine's a 2019 FYI, X166). Happy to pay $20 for someone's time as I know it's a bit tedious to be measuring out 3 diff emblems:

- Rear trunk AMG emblem
- Rear trunk GLS 63 emblem
- Fender V8 Biturbo emblems

The shop that took off the emblems off my 2019 didn't make a template for the location, and now they're noticeably off location-wise. I'm particular and want them mounted back in as close to OEM location as possible. Would greatly appreciate the help.

TIA!
