Rear roof rail vents on 89my

[steven popay]

Hi there
Is there any chance someone could photograph and measure the vents on the roof rails please. They are two small slits cut into the roof rails at the rear of the quarter glass, just where the rail folds behind the glass, mine should have them but doesnt.
thank you
steve

Distances
they're about 2-3 mm in from the outside edge of the body.
Approx. 4.5 cm up from the end of the lower radius
Approx 5.5 cm long
2.3 cm between them and approx 28cm from the edge of the upper radius.

About 5 mm across (couldn't get an accurate measurement because the glass is in the way!)

Hope this helps.

I was told by a reliable source that it prevents buffeting in the back when the door windows are open, there is also a hole in the rear pillar behind the roof rail
