Dimensions of Mustang & Tbird Tail Light Bezels?

I'm considering using Mustang tail light bezels to make a custom instrument panel on my 37 Buick.
1) Can anyone tell me the inside dimensions of the bezels for a 64-66 Mustang (this would be the red lense that shows in each section)?
2) How wide is the dividing chrome between lense sections on the 64-66?
3) Can anyone tell me the inside dimensions of the bezels for a 67-68 California Special Mustang (or 64-65 T-bird)?
2) How wide is the dividing chrome between lense sections on the 67-68 California Special Mustang bezels?
Thanks

I don't have any examples to measure for you but the photo on the right depicts a 65 T-Bird tail light. That's what was used on the 67/68 Shelby Mustangs.

I have a set of bezels for a 65 Mustang in the barn. I'll measure them later today and post the info.

Here ya go.

Well Mutt.....these bezels are very difficult to measure. I'm trying to be as accurate as I can.

The width of each opening is 1 -7/16" in the center of the opening. At both ends of each opening, they taper down to 1 -5/16".

The length of the center opening is 4 -13/16. The two outer openings measure 4 -11/16 in length.

The dividing chrome is 11/16" in the center of each one. They are 3/4" at each end.

I hope this is clear. They appear to be the same size openings but they are not. Every corner of each opening is rounded so I can only measure them in the center. I hope this is what you need and is helpful, If not, let me know and I'll help any way I can.

Lynn,
Thanks so much for taking the time to do this.
Looks like I would have to use 3 bezels to make a instrument panel.
I'll do some layout in cad and see how it fits the constraits.
Thanks again for your help.
