MG TD TF 1500 - TD Wheel Arch Brackets

Can anyone help me with the correct positions for the bracket holes on the wheel arch in a TD? The previous owner had covered them up (apparently some rust issues) when he put in TF seats.

With a tape measure over the arch from the flat mine measures 9" and 11" (give or take a 1/16th) to hole center-lines and 1" from the inside edge to the center-line.

Thanks for the info. I am assuming that you were measuring from the flat surface of the rear wood shelf (mine is out right now).

RT,
Tape measure from the rear edge of the wheel arch toward the front of the car. I see pretty close to 14 and 16inches. The upper rear edge of the wheel arch is slightly rounded so +- about 1/16" Holes are up against the outside edge of the fold over. I think Mike must have measured from the front edge. Sorry for the glare.

Yep, front edge of the flat shelf.
