Question How to install badges properly

My detailer is going to debadge before applying PPF, so I purchased genuine trunk and fender badges.

Question is, does anyone have access to alignment doc similar to the one I attached to this post?

I'll also ask dealership if they offer to install the badges but I doubt it.

Or can someone with GLC63S SUV kindly measure the fitting positions? I need dimensions from the closest edges for "AMG", "GLC63S" and "V8 BITURBO 4MATIC+"

I am traveling but back home in 2 days, would be happy to measure these for you if nobody else responds 1st.
Planning to replace my badges with blacked out replacements so will need these measurements as well.
Making a "reminder" to get the measurements & respond.
cheers,

Interior Center Console cover AMG logo is centered left to right (exactly 2-1/2" of space each side of "AMG"), Top of AMG 1-3/8" below top of Cover. Bottom of AMG emblem is 4-5/16" from bottom of cover/ Console Lid.
I have the same Carbon cover on the interior center console.

Below is the back measurements, I will need to upload the side V8-Biturbo 4matic+ picture and add measurements, out of time for tonight!

Why can't your "detailer" just measure old badges location before he removes them?
Weird for a professional detailer to ask the customer where he should put the badges back after he removes them

He will. Can't hurt to have another set of measurements to compare. Also, there's a possibility I won't receive the badges from Europe in time, in which case I will have to do it myself later on.

Any professional detailer / paint / wrap / ppf shop will know to make a template before removing the badges. Just having the measurements is not enough if you don't know the spacing between the letters & numbers. This is literally working on cars 101. Find another detailer.

Valid. I was kidding about debadging to some point as I like my car to have the AMG badge on the back, and the Biturbo V8 on the side. My detailer took my blacked out eBay badges and properly spaced them out.

I don't need to know the spacing because the OEM replacement badges have a backing paper.
