67 TAIL LIGHT MOUNTING PANEL OPINIONS

[Troub]

Greetings!
I’m trying to figure out what the difference is between this AMD panel for 68-69 Darts and my 67. You see them listed as 67-69 but AMD lists as only 68-69. If you call any vendor they just read whatever their computer screen says. Pics of my 67 panel and the AMD panel. Give me your opinions?

I can’t be the only one to ever have to repair a 67 tail light mount. C’mon, help a guy out here.

The mount location holes and angle for the 4 studs of the tail light bucket is different for the 67. I own a 67 and installed 69 tail lights. I fabricated some angle brackets to make the 69 buckets fit. It was a long time ago.
Look at the difference of the top and bottom of the bucket opening between the two photos you posted.

Thanks to both you guys for the replies. I think I may get the 68-69 repop piece to use for splicing in some of my rusted areas. I’ll just have to do the best I can with it.

I'm no help LOL. Been told (on here) that the 67 openings are smaller, but have never seen 67/ 68-9 side by side "empty." Early this spring I bought a 69/ junker if you keep reminding me the next couple days, I'll try'n get a photo with measurements
