Default Could someone with an early 75 kindly measure this for me?

Hello,

I'm in need of the dimensions for the leather grab handle on the central rear armrest in an early 75 as shown in the photo and diagram below.

Could some kind soul take a ruler/tape measure to theirs next time they pop out and note/photograph the measurements for me? It would be very much appreciated.

I basically need the overall height of the handle, the position of the two stitched lines on the handle, and the measurement from the bottom of the handle to the bottom of the arm rest.

Thank you in advance!

From the bottom to the 'belt': 28cm
The 'belt' itself: 5cm wide
From seam to seam: 2cm, the seams being centered within the 'belt'.
