Hi Stinky,

the inner edges of the grille surround,

centre of inner side to opposing centre of inner side to give the width.

and centre of the horizontal section to opposing side to give the height.

At the centre the vertical measurement is 202mm on my reco'd grille (chromed, powder coat and in the car)
The grille in the boot of a wreck was 7mm less and the grille on the wreck was 5mm less.

Horizontal measurement at what I thought was the widest point, 965mm, but this is with the horizontal bars in place so it is a curved measurement.
