Re: measurements for backup lights
Sorry not yet, the bed in the pics i posted is the pieces I cut off and I have them handy here at home.
I got in late sunday with my folks from washington state ( 2100 mile drive ) moving them to Oklahoma and have been busy moving them into their new house. I will get them for you in a night or two and post the pics here online

Re: measurements for backup lights
If you put a tape on the inside edge of the bed between the bed and tailgate ( around the tailgate pivot ball ) it is 1 3/8 inch to the edge of the hole and 1 3/4 to the far edge of the hole
