Door scissor arm installation

Does anyone know the correct way to install the scissor arm at the door header.
The elongated slot is closer to one side over the other.
Does it matter which side faces interior of RV ? The thicker side or thinner side ?

Ive done this twice now. The wide side goes toward the coach. Its the only way I could get the last screw in. Watch out that the plate doesn't pinch the air seal/gasket on the coach. The coach is in storage so I can't get the dimension you need.

These may help, but our rigs are different years.
