    My '59 parts manual only shows them on the front & only lists "2" for quantity, the '67 PM shows "4".

    All I know is the tops I saw at the shop. Some had steps for the plugs, some the bores were extended out farther where a plug could fit in the end and not have the shift rail hit, and some were too short and no step and no way a plug could have been put in without being forced out by the shift rails. They did all have plugs or provisions for plugs in the front though.
    I looked at them all because I had to sort them all out to keep the best ones for shop use/sales and we sold the rest to a transmission remanufacturer.

    Today, I painted my little bracket, wired in the switch, bolted it on, fed some power to it, put the trans in reverse and presto! Very bright reverse light. :D I know, I know, no pics, I'll have to get some. :beer:
