Bob checked several other cars in there shop and verified they were all this way based on the template they use. The layout he sent me is pretty much identical to yours for the passenger door but the driver's door is different. I don't know - maybe just an ERA thing or maybe there is something about the use of a common lower side curtain frame/stud section that results in this when it's flipped around and used for both sides - don't know.

Thanks

They are symetrical on both doors. By this I mean the rear ferrule is inboard of the first stud on the rear cowl. The ferrule has to be inboard in order for the side curtain to fit against the top.
