Default Vinyl Top Question

I had a top installed on my 72 Lemans, and am just getting around to getting the rest of the car together. Can someone post a picture of where to trim the A pillars where they come to the cowl? The installer left this area extra long, and I want to see what other guys have done. Since the top shows behind the door, I would like to see where the best location is.

Thanks,
Mike

Here's my 72 GTO's factory installed vinyl top. The left side is 3/8" above the fender bracket, while the right side has a small edge actually under the fender bracket. Also, it's cut on a arc not a straight line. Both sides on my car are starting to peel and need to be glued.
