Does anyone have a picture in the trunk area of the holes for the back up light wiring. I am looking for a picture of where the wire goes through the trunk floor to the lights.

If you search this site, you can find it, cuz I know it's been posted before. I did it, and as I recall, just outboard of the brace, toward the corner on each side, there is a dimple in the trunk floor pan. I remember drilling at the dimple with a 1/2" drill bit, and this allows the rubber plug on the harness to seat perfectly.

I see Classic Industries has a gasket for between the light and body. I called Ricks and they dont have them and said they did not come from the factory with a gasket. So does it take a gasket. I wanted to use one to protect the paint. 67/68 do use a gasket.
