cab clearance light measurements?

alright those of you with stock clearance lights speak up! i just picked up some clearance lights while i was at the junkyard for the gfs vehicle yesterday, i got them off a 3/4 ton from the same year, so those of you with stock clearance lights, can you give me measurements from the side of the roof to the first screw and distance from screw-screw?

Here's a pic. Got them on and I think they look pretty good. I'll add a night picture after it gets dark.

Chrome mirrors

Hi there guys, i have a 1996 F150 long box reg cab, it is green and silver and bone stock, with some awful mirrors that i don't like and wanna change them for the older style of chrome mirrors that look way better, i am also putting some cab markers on the truck, there 90's chevy markers, i know wrong brand but there what i got and i actually dont mind how they look when its all done i post pictures of my truck..... anyways back to my question, how hard is it to install the mirrors, and can i make the mounts for these old mirrors go away then i take them off or am i screwed with this change?
