Am looking to install new fender mount signals and can't remember on my 69 Dart in 69 if the signals were flat mount or had a curve. Any one know which ones were original. Mounting dimensions would also help...
69 had side reflectors, not lights. Am looking for info on the small chrome lights on the top of the fender, appears to be 2 different styles. Also looking for measurements as to where they are mountedside circle lights. Or. Top mount bullet style
Thanks, just the info I was looking for.I can get you measurements tomorrow on placement, my car didn't come factory with them, but my buddies did. I took measurements off his fenders while he was restoring his car
Thanks again for the info. Didn't know if it had the flat mount or the curved ones like the one you have shown in the photosOk, measurements are from front edge of fender lip to edge of bullet is 7" i.e. First two pics. From the inside of fender to edge of bullet is 2 5/8". Put masking tape on fender and lay it out, drill holes and mount, I think I went 1/4" hole if I remember correctly in order to have a little movement.

Punch "68 Dart GT fender mounted turn signals" into Google and all sorts of pages will come up with them for sale.Jeff, I really like those lights, I have a 68 Dart GT and was wondering if I would be able to use those on my car. By any chance would you know where I could pick up a set of those lights? Would you or your friend have a set of those you would be willing to part with? please let me know if and where I might be able to get a set. Thank you Brian
The '69 ones are much harder to find. Especially good/used. Beware that they are almost 50 years old and will almost certainly need new lenses and bulb assemblies. The housings corrode, and the lenses get brittle and crack when you try to remove them to replace the bulbs.Punch "68 Dart GT fender mounted turn signals" into Google and all sorts of pages will come up with them for sale.

O.K. but when I did what 240gordy said to do (Google "68 Dart GT fender mounted turn signals") the units that came up were a mix of the correct '69 ones and a bunch of other ones that were not correct.68-69 A and B body are all the same
