While we're on this topic, I recently removed the side box from my long box and discovered the hole in the bed sheet metal looked like it had been cut in by a cave man using a reciprocating saw. I wonder if any of these were dealer installed or did they actually do such nasty looking work on the assembly line?

Yes some were dealer installed and probably owner installed also. Whoever cut in the hole for mine certainly wasn't a perfectionist but you would have never know without pulling the box out.
