am turning a pair of 69 dart front fenders into 68's. both the fenders that came with my car were pretty mangled. can anyone with a 68 dart give me some measurements for hole placement?

like the distance from the front edge of the fender to the forward edge of the hole, and a second measurement from the front edge to the rear edge of the hole.

or something else easy to figure out
 
I can't help you readily with the location of the light (my car is still in winter storage and I am at work), but I wanted to make sure you knew you need to change the headlight bucket or space out the headlight itself in order to put a '68 grille on those fenders.

The fenders on my car are '69's.
 
67-68 fenders Almost the same. 69 Fender thats a different fender altogether lots of work to make it work. I would look for a set of 67,6873-74-75-76 fenders before i spent the time changing tose 69s
 
i already changed the buckets out ;-) thanks for the tip though.

just now getting to the point of filling the reflector holes and adding marker light holes.

as you can see in my sig, the blue fenders are from the 69 and I got the 68 grill on
 
I'll take some pictures and overlay some measurements for your tonight. My fenders are still off the car, and the marker lights are out, so I'll give you to the edge of the light opening.
 
Here's the pictures of my front Fenders, and the measurements of the marker light opening. I'm assuming you know the diameter of the Marker Light :)

You wouldn't have the measurements for the rear markers would you ?
 
Thanks Tacfire11, I just today purchased a 1969 Dart GT that had all the body work done by the previous owner, but they didn't drill out and place the markers in.
If it wouldn't be too much trouble could you provide the measurement for the rear makers as well?
Many thanks,
Dean
