    Hey -

    Could someone with the round OE backup lights measure how far down they are on the tub for me?

    Thanks...

    Mike they are between 3 3/8" and 3 1/2" below the top edge of the tub, its hard to be any more accurate than that with the bestop rail in the way. That is from the top of the tub to the top edge of round metal body.

    Mike,

    5-1/8" down from the top of the tub.

    4" over from the tailgate opening.

    Both measurements are to the center of the lense.
