The sticker for my overhead trim indicator fell off at one time, and I
just glued it back in it's "approximate" position. I think you're
probably over thinking this. Benford2's idea was probably as good as
anyone's. I'd start with the center most position (half way between all
the way forward and all the way back), and then do 5 or 6 take offs and
landings and find what feels right. Then mark accordingly. I somehow
doubt that Piper was that precise when they were applying the decals in
the factory (especially since you can easily bend the little pointer).

(Although the higher math degree was my add.) He said they don't even
bother setting it to neutral but rather try hard to rely on the old
sticker and position of the tab. Unfortunately, its too late for that
since the wheel was already moved by a co-owner.
