P-51C Landing Gear

When the landing gear on the P-51 was lowered, there are two flaps that cover the wheels that also open and meet near the centre of the fuselage. Has anyone got any references as to how far these wheel flaps open and at what angle they might be when the gear is only halfway through being lowered?

Regards
Pathfinder
