Default Measurements needed

I need the diameter and center to center spacing and the distance from the bottom to the center of the four holes marked in red.
I borrowed the first picture from 1930.68B
Thanks

Here is a picture an original back panel on my 8/1930 coupe. The holes are one inch. I will have to get the rest of the measurements when I can get to the car.

Your back panel should have come with instructions and diagram of how to place this back panel to the seat frame with the nails. If it didn't, try asking LeBaron Bonney if they would send you the those instructions, also pre-drill the holes in the panel for the nails to go through.

I have an original panel that I removed from an early 1931 Standard Coupe. I measured the diameter of the holes to be 15/16". The holes are not evenly spaced. The two center holes are 9-1/2" center to center. The two outer holes are 10-1/8" center to center from the center holes. Hope that is not confusing.
Another way to say it would be, numbering the holes from left to right, one through four: distance from hole #1 to hole #2 is 10-1/8"; from hole #2 to hole #3 is 9-1/2"; from hole #3 to hole #4 is 10-1/8".

Nice looking upholstery, did you do that yourself?

Thanks for the measurements that is exactly what I need, now all I need is how high from the bottom are the holes.
This is a LeBaron Bonney kit for a 1930 standard coupe with a trunk that I installed, it did not come with trunk panels. I got a large piece of mat board from Hobby Lobby and made the back board, I just need to put the holes in it. This is not a show car, but I like to make things as correct as I can.
