Hi Randy,

I rise like a trout to the bait. <grin>

I'm afraid I don't have dimensions but I do have a pretty good picture of 
what it should look like. In addition the 3  Bj7's I've trimmed over the 
years had definite markings on the aluminum where the padded pleats had run, 
certainly enough to be able to position the new liners. As you can see in 
the pics. the stitching pretty much parallels the top and bottom of the door 
panel. Notice also the relation of the stitching to the positions of the 
inner door handle release and the window winder handle.
That inner vinyl will wrap nicely around all the edges of the aluminum and 
onto the back side by 3/4" or so.

Hope this helps,
Rich Chrysler
