I have denim paint and lightly drew on it with a mechanical pencil. Wiped right off. Mount the first one, then measure it top, bottom, fore, and aft from known points like the dash, filler cap, bottom of tank, or rear of tank, then mark the placement for the other side per the same measurments. Just make sure you form them to the tank before you pull the backing off the adhesive. Good luck.

Yeah I got the same ones and the contour of them makes them really only fit in that little area. Mounting the first side is easy but getting the second one in the exact position on the other side is a little more of a pain in the butt.

I know you have them on now...but I if I ever replace mine I will probably try to use pieces of string to measure the location once I have one of them mounted to get the other one in the exact same location.

I just bought the same emblems that you have in your picture. I hope they're as easy to install as you say. I don't want to look ate up!
