Default 180A Rear bumper crossbar spacer

Does anyone have the dimensions for the rear bumper crossbar spacers used on the deluxe phaeton (180A) with the one piece rear bumpers?

Thanks, Will

here's a picture of an original one
the ends are sheared at a slight angle
you can take a large bracket and cut it to look like this
turn the sheared end to the rear and it will look fine
it is 2 3/4 like Peter says

I have several NOS 180A rear bumper crossbar spacers that are now available. Until reading this I knew what they were but did not know their the year and body style application.

i believe they are the same for all cars
they are just a substitution for the bumper bracket they are replacing

They are put there when you only have a FULL bumper on the back.
