Default Aligning V-tail

I'm almost finished with my winter project - a Skybench Cloudbound4 sailplane. I'm at the point of attaching the V-tail to the fuselage. The problem I'm having is how do I align the V-tail relative to the wing? I've tried measuring the distance between each wing-tip and the tip of each half of the V (like I've done for the more conventional tail), but I'm not sure if that's the best method - everything looks pretty symetrical, but I'd hate to just eye-balling the alignment. Any ideas?
