    The person before me did it, and they use commas instead of decimal points, so I assumed it was a standard car measurement in Europe.

        I had to double check after I read your comment. Another benefit of metric. Even when you’re wrong there’s a good chance you’re right.

        Depends on the system and where you live. In hand writing, i would use 3,635 mm for decimals. However, on computer 3’635 mm to write 3.635 m.

        Personally, I like the high comma as a thousands separator as it removes possibilities to misread the number. But not everyone will agree.
